And I hope that when the sun shines you'll bathe in gold
Gold like my Mum's Marigold
Gold like my old man's walking through the sand
After dipping his toes
Gold out in Silverado
The mountains tumble on road
The leaves and the trees
They flow in the breeze that blows
Gold like this Marlborough eye glow
And I trust that you're fine
You can hold your own
And I'll hold mine
And this ocean between us
I dreamt to swim in it
Time after time
You see my best friend moved to California
And I can hardly blame him for that
He said he skates down the beach
And the air smells like coconuts
I can hardly blame him for that
Sometimes we're struggling to write back
If only I can get a plane lean back and lift off
Like driftwood on the sea we can drift off
And pick up once again from where we left off
And like driftwood from the sea we can drift off
And pick up once again from where we left off
And I'll stay days out here
Waiting for you
And I'll stay days out here
Waiting for you
And I'll stay days out here
Waiting for you
And I'll stay days out here
Waiting for you
