Gold (feat. Salif Keita)

I woke up not recognizing anything this mornin' Except for this big ol' clock on my wall My hair's gotten whiter and my eyes are getting bluer This sun's getting into my skin Say I'm here every step you take I am the wind on your skin I'm the lines across your face That tell your story to the world When it burns, be patient Think of the ocean Gold, yeah, I'm gold now And you don't know if you think I'm old Gold, no, I'm not old, no I'm in the golden age Not my time to go yet And I'm a gold child I'm at the edge of the world And I wanna be here with you If you look into my soul Just get past the broken bones You'll see the sun get into my skin Say I'm here every step you take I am the wind on your skin I'm the lines across your face That tell your story to the world When it burns, be patient Think of the ocean Gold, yeah, I'm gold now And you don't know if you think I'm old Gold, no, I'm not old, no I'm in the golden age Not my time to go yet Yeah, I'm gold now And you don't know if you think I'm old Gold, even when it burns, oh I'm in the golden age Not my time to go yet
