Golden Tide

Woke up to the salt on my skin

Morning light was painting the bay

You rolled in like a slow ocean grin

And the whole wide world felt far away

Now the radio hums through the heat

Pear feet tapping out to none

Every lip keeps time with my heartbeat

And your smile keeps the sky so bright

We're golden

We're golden in the sun

Laughing till the day is done

Heading, heading where the shoreline bends

This sweet summer never ends

We're golden, we're golden and free

Just you, the waves and me

With the breeze and the blue of love

We're living on easy love

Neon sunset on the rental car roof

Wind in your hair, I'm losing track

You and me in the afterglow truth

No need to hurry, no need to look back

Now the radio hums through the heat

Bare feet topping out the night

Every wave keeps flying with my heartbeat

And your smile keeps the sky so bright

We're golden, we're golden in the sun

Laughing till the day is done

Hand in hand where the shoreline bends

This sweet summer never ends

We're golden, we're a golden tree

Just you, the waves and me

With the breeze and the blue above

We're living on easy love

If the day slips slow and the colors fade

We'll keep that spark in the afterglow

Every little moment we make

Feels like a secret

If only we'd known

We're golden, we're golden in the sun

Laughing till the day is done

Hand in hand where the shoreline bends

This sweet summer never ends

We're golden, we're gold and we're free

Just you, the waves and me

With the breeze and the blue above

We're living on easy love
