Gold Lyrics by SHELLS

Shapes - EP

2016

[Verse 1]
I'm scared of the long nights and the darkness
I've bared every heartache and tenderness
And I've dared every lover to defeat the no
And I've found that in every man there's a child

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh ooh ooh, everybody's made of gold
Oh ooh ooh, everybody's made of gold
So put me in black and white, baby
I'm afraid of showing you my colors
So put me in black and white, hold me
'Cause I wanna be the color above the dust

[Verse 2]
I lied and I really didn't need to
But now I'm through with trying to please you

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh ooh ooh, everybody's made of gold
Oh ooh ooh, everybody's made of gold
So put me in black and white, baby
I'm afraid of showing you my colors
So put me in black and white, hold me
'Cause I wanna be the color above the dust

[Chorus]
The trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh the trouble with love
Is it lovers, lovers, lovers, lovers
Making fools out of love?
The trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh the trouble with love
Is it lovers, lovers, lovers, lovers
Making fools out of love?
Show your colors
Show your colors

[Outro]
Go put me in black and white, baby
I'm afraid of showing you my colors
So put me in black and white, hold me
'Cause I wanna be the color above the dust
