[Verse 1] You walk in slow Like morning water White shirt, brown skin A name I savor Your laugh hits soft Like rain on tile I start to make A saint of your smile (So close, so bright) I paint your edges gold (So close, so bright) And call it self-control [Pre-Chorus] But you are just A breathing heart With cracked-up days And a shadow part Still I lean in Like I’m sure You were made from Something pure [Chorus] I make you golden I make you glow I make you golden I know, I know (You’re only human) (Still I fall) I make you golden And miss your flaws [Verse 2] Your coffee cup Has chipped blue paint Your old blue chair Your patient face You leave wet shoes By the door And every small thing Makes me want you more (Too perfect, no) I know that trick (Too perfect, no) My heart can myth a flick [Pre-Chorus] But you are warm And slightly late You forget your keys You change your mind Still I lean in Like I’m sure You were made from Morning light [Chorus] I make you golden I make you glow I make you golden I know, I know (You’re only human) (Still I fall) I make you golden And miss your flaws [Bridge] If I saw you plain Would I stay? Would the spell hold In the day? Maybe love is this: A tender lie A little shine Across your eyes (Stay for real) (Stay for real) [Final Chorus] I make you golden I make you glow I make you golden I know, I know (You’re only human) (Still I fall) I make you golden And love you all
