Switchfoot – Shine Like Gold lyrics

(feat. Lifehouse)

[Verse 1: Jon Foreman]
Fear in your eyes like you’re lookin' for a window
For the wide open skies wonderin' where do I begin though?
If you knew how bright you shine
Do you think it might change your mind?
The clouds are on fire, and they’re telling you something that they know

[Pre-Chorus: Jon Foreman]
You shine like gold
You shine like gold

[Verse 2: Jason Wade]
Remember what you said when you drove all night from Memphis?
That the headlights of your eyes were running from the tempest
Well the dawn broke through the black
When you’re laughin', lookin' back
No matter how dark, the morning comes up relentless

[Chorus: Jon Foreman & Jason Wade]
You shine like gold
You shine like gold
And your soul was born to shine
Like a spark (like a spark)
In the night (in the night)
In the dark, it hides your glow


[Bridge: Jon Foreman & Jason Wade]
When the thoughts, in your mind, are like fears
And they take you places
[Run?], like it’s hard, to believe
And the achin' feeling
Lost, find it harder to breathe
Remember what you know

[Pre-Chorus: Jon Foreman & Jason Wade]
You shine like gold
You shine like gold

[Chorus: Jon Foreman & Jason Wade]
You shine like gold
You shine like gold
And your soul was born to shine
Like a spark (like a spark)
In the night (in the night)
In the dark, it hides your glow
