Marina and The Diamonds Gold song lyrics

You've got it in the palm of your hands (in your hands)

It's slipping through your fingers like sand (like sand)

Cause they don't understand who you are (who you are)

Doesn't matter 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

(To drop, to drop, to drop)

I've been working, working to get back what I lost, (I lost, I lost) I lost

But whatever happens I'll be okay (I'll be okay)

Cause fortune's running out of my veins, my veins (uh-huh)

You can't take away the Midas' touch

So you better make way for a Greek gold rush

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

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

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, free, free, free

Free, free, free, I am free
