Gold Rush Fever (Version 2)

Verse 1

Neon lights reflected off your skin

You stole the mic like it was a sin to keep it in

We danced 'til the speakers started to hum

Every step felt like a battle won

Your hand landed on my hipbone fast as light

I didn't even notice till you pulled me tight

Pre-Chorus

Now your chest is pressed against mine

You're counting down and I'm feeling fine

What's the number one we haven't said yet?

How close can this get?

Before you walk right out of here with that smile on your face

And leave me chasing the same thrill in a different place

Chorus

Tell me something true, tell me it's gold rush fever

I'm running blind through the smoke and I think I see it coming for me

One shot to remember how this feels like fire

Before you're gone, before you disappear from my eyes

Tell me something true, is this all that we get?

Just one shining minute, one wild thing to bet

Verse 2

We stole a bottle out of the back room fridge

You poured it straight into your glass and then you took two strides

I followed close behind with the whole club blinding me blind

Every step felt like I was running out of time

The smoke machine started coughing its last gasp of white

And your hand found mine under the strobe light that cut through the haze tonight

You pulled me toward the door and I knew right then and there we'd never stay long enough

Pre-Chorus

Now your chest is pressed against mine

You're counting down and I'm feeling fine

What's the number one we haven't said yet?

How close can this get?

Before you walk right out of here with that smile on your face

And leave me chasing the same thrill in a different place

Chorus

Tell me something true, tell me it's gold rush fever

I'm running blind through the smoke and I think I see it coming for me

One shot to remember how this feels like fire

Before you're gone, before you disappear from my eyes

Tell me something true, is this all that we get?

Just one shining minute, one wild thing to bet

Bridge

Don't say it twice

Just say it once

Right now

Right here

One good reason for me to stay and not just disappear with the dawn

Chorus

Tell me something true, tell me it's gold rush fever

I'm running blind through the smoke and I think I see it coming for me

One shot to remember how this feels like fire

Before you're gone, before you disappear from my eyes

Tell me something true, is this all that we get?

Just one shining minute, one wild thing to bet
