Evergold

I don't know where to start I remember less each day But I still hear the hiss of summer A gilded sky fading away We had hope, burning bright Like Roman candles in the night Oh, they come as fast as they go The days of evergold Yeah we were endlessly restless Young and dumb and fumbling 'round the backseats And every heart was an ocean Turning madly in the deep It's still in my veins, each rush of blood The eyes of everyone i've ever loved Am I the kid I used to know In the days of evergold Well the years they pull like a phantom limb You can feel but you just can't quite get back again You can see them flash when you close your eyes Then watch them fade back to the night We had nothing else, but time and truth In the sunset of our fading youth Starts to feel like forever ago Since the time moved smooth and slow Oh I wish we could have known They were days of evergold They were days of evergold Days of evergold
