Gold

MARINA & THE DIAMONDS · Froot 2015 · Track 07 of 12

You've got it in the palm of your hands It's slipping through your fingers like sand 'Cause they don't understand who you are Doesn't matter as long as I am your star, star

Yeah, I know that I need the gold But what I love can't be bought or sold

Don't think I want what I used to want Don't think I need what I used to need Don't think I want what I used to want Don't think I see what I used to see

I've been waiting, waiting for the penny to drop I've been working, working to get back what I lost But whatever happens, I'll be okay 'Cause fortune's running out of my veins, my veins

You can't take away the Midas' touch So you better make a way for a Greek gold rush

Don't think I want what I used to want Don't think I need what I used to need Don't think I want what I used to want Don't think I see what I used to see In El Dorado, your gold To Colorado can't be bought or sold

Now, there's no moral to this story But I can hear my freedom calling me, calling me

I don't care that everybody knows I'm a million dollars in the hole I don't care that everybody knows Baby, I don't even want your gold From El Dorado, your gold To Colorado can't be bought or sold

Gold rush Gold rush Free, I am free
