Marina And The Diamonds - Gold (Lyrics)

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

I'm coming for you like a Greek gold rush

'Cause girls, they wanna, they just wanna have funds

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
