Wake Up Golden

Verse

Six a.m. and the curtains spill light

Bare feet on the floor, world painted white

Coffee steam curls like a question mark

Counting hours till the streets turn dark

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it building, low and slow

Every clock hand says it's time to go

So tell me now, are we ready to fly

Chorus

We wake up golden, we run with the sun

Free like the wind till the day is done

Kick off our shoes when the stars ignite

We're gonna dance, gonna dance tonight

Wake up golden, no chains, no line

Just gold on gold till the morning light

Verse

Noon sun on my shoulders, the sidewalk's warm

Radio crackles, a brand new form

Traffic lights blink like they're keeping score

But I'm already gone, I'm out the door

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it building, low and slow

Every clock hand says it's time to go

So tell me now, are we ready to fly

Chorus

We wake up golden, we run with the sun

Free like the wind till the day is done

Kick off our shoes when the stars ignite

We're gonna dance, gonna dance tonight

Wake up golden, no chains, no line

Just gold on gold till the morning light

Bridge

Maybe freedom's just a feeling in your chest

Maybe midnight is where morning finds its rest

No map, no reason, just the beat and the breeze

Hands up high, we're loose, we're free

Chorus

We wake up golden, we run with the sun

Free like the wind till the day is done

Kick off our shoes when the stars ignite

We're gonna dance, gonna dance tonight

Wake up golden, no chains, no line

Just gold on gold till the morning light

Gold on gold till the morning light
