Cass Eager - Back To Gold Lyrics

Close the door and turn out the light
Leave it all outside for a night
Lay my body down in the water
Take me baby, take me to the river

I wish we had one more night
In that room, in that light
I wish you could be all mine
Like you were, on that night

Darling your heart is painted black
But it didn't start out like that
It must have happened long ago
Let me paint it back to gold
Let me paint it back to gold

It's my favourite time of day
I go and lock myself away
Close the door and turn off the light
See you baby in my mind's eye

I go back just one more time
To that room, to that night
I still dream that you are mine
Like you were, on that night

Darling your heart is painted black
But it didn't start out like that
It must have happened long ago
Let me paint it back to gold
Let me paint it back to gold

We can be clean or dirty
We can be high or low
We can make all the time
Make it go real slow
I can be Mother Mary
You can be Babylon
I can ride the elevator
You can make it stop

Darling your heart is painted black (painted black)
But it didn't start out like that (no it didn't start out like that)
It must have happened long ago (happened long ago)
Let me paint it back to gold (back to gold)
Darling your heart is painted black (painted black)
But it didn't start out like that (no it didn't start out like that)
It must have happened long ago (happened long ago)
Let me paint it back to gold (back to gold)
Let me paint it back to gold
Let me paint it back to gold
Let me paint it back to gold
