Call Me Golden

Verse

Ice in the glass and the sun on my shoulder

Twenty-two summers and I'm feeling bolder

Convertible top down, the radio's mine

Cruising past midnight, we got all the time

Lipstick on the rim, we're laughing too loud

Dancing barefoot on the hood of a crowd

Neon in the pool, we're painting the dark

Every little heartbeat's leaving its mark

Pre-Chorus

So who's gonna catch us, who's gonna try

We're lightning in bottles, we're too fast to tie

Watch how we shimmer, watch how we shine

Ain't nothing about us that's running on time

Chorus

Call me golden, call me golden

Sun on my skin like I'm always in season

Call me golden, call me golden

Young and unbothered, ain't looking for a reason

Every mirror's smiling back

Every summer's ours like that

Call me golden, call me golden

Verse

Boardwalk lights and a peach on my tongue

Twenty bucks and a night that's just begun

Strangers turn friends by the end of one song

We don't need a map, we just keep moving on

Salt on my collarbone, sand in my hair

Nothing's forever but I don't care

This is the summer they'll talk about later

When we were the fire, when we were the flavor

Pre-Chorus

So who's gonna catch us, who's gonna try

We're lightning in bottles, we're too fast to tie

Watch how we shimmer, watch how we shine

Ain't nothing about us that's running on time

Chorus

Call me golden, call me golden

Sun on my skin like I'm always in season

Call me golden, call me golden

Young and unbothered, ain't looking for a reason

Every mirror's smiling back

Every summer's ours like that

Call me golden, call me golden

Bridge

Maybe one day this fades to a photograph

Grainy and soft, just a laugh and a half

But tonight I'm still twenty, the world's still wide

So let the whole sky know it, let it ride

Chorus

Call me golden, call me golden

Sun on my skin like I'm always in season

Call me golden, call me golden

Young and unbothered, ain't looking for a reason

Every mirror's smiling back

Every summer's ours like that

Call me golden, call me golden
