Gold Satin Dreamer

Light bleeds in through the curtain lace

Sleep on the couch where the flowers stay

And never bloom, but only fade in the sun

I fill the bath while I dream of the lake

I can smell the blood purged from raw steak

By the barbecue on a summer day in the sun

But I find you here

In the blue light of the TV

And I, I feel you in the wind

Through the back screen at night

With the kitchen tile cold on my cheek (oh)

Love you, baby

Gold satin dreamer

Gold satin heart

Gold satin dreamer

Waiting for it to get dark (for it to get dark)

I wait for it to get dark

All of those dreams left out in the sun

They run like syrup and clot like blood

Disfigured beyond recognition in the sun

Colors fade from my memories and even though

Other faces I forget, yours is carved of stone

Tryna to take you out of me is like

Trying to get smoke out of wood

Love you, baby

Gold satin dreamer

Gold satin heart

Gold satin dreamer

Waiting for it to get dark (for it to get dark)

I wait for it to get dark (for it to get dark)
