Gold Songtext
You were a quiet boy
Growing up in the heart of Texas
You had a quiet father, too
He built the car you drove
It was a '69 and '70 Mustang
He took two halves of broken cars and made 'em new
You sat there in the garage
There was oil on his hands
And he didn't tell you much
Growing up in the heart of Texas
You had a quiet father, too
He built the car you drove
It was a '69 and '70 Mustang
He took two halves of broken cars and made 'em new
You sat there in the garage
There was oil on his hands
And he didn't tell you much
So I hope you understand
That you are wonderful
You are kind
You are patient, you are humble, and you are wise
You don't see it with your own eyes
But you are gold to me
And I love the way you shine
You were a quiet boy
Driving two hours west to college
Thought you'd be a doctor, a medicine man
But two years later
You found a different kind of knowledge
When a friend put an old guitar there in your hands
You moved to Tennessee
And you didn't know it then
But you'd heal with melody
You still didn't understand
You are wonderful
You are kind
You are patient, you are humble, and you are wise
You don't see it with your own eyes
You are gold to me
And I love the way you shine
I learned how to sing
So I could sing right next to you
Just like you would watch your dad
Make a broken car brand new
There have been a thousand songs
That have carried me through
And in their melodies, your quiet voice says
"I love you, too"
You are wonderful
You are kind
You are patient, you are humble, and you are wise
You don't see it with your own eyes
You are gold to me
And I love the way you shine
You are gold to me
And I love the way you shine
I love the way you shine
Love the way you shine
That you are wonderful
You are kind
You are patient, you are humble, and you are wise
You don't see it with your own eyes
But you are gold to me
And I love the way you shine
You were a quiet boy
Driving two hours west to college
Thought you'd be a doctor, a medicine man
But two years later
You found a different kind of knowledge
When a friend put an old guitar there in your hands
You moved to Tennessee
And you didn't know it then
But you'd heal with melody
You still didn't understand
You are wonderful
You are kind
You are patient, you are humble, and you are wise
You don't see it with your own eyes
You are gold to me
And I love the way you shine
I learned how to sing
So I could sing right next to you
Just like you would watch your dad
Make a broken car brand new
There have been a thousand songs
That have carried me through
And in their melodies, your quiet voice says
"I love you, too"
You are wonderful
You are kind
You are patient, you are humble, and you are wise
You don't see it with your own eyes
You are gold to me
And I love the way you shine
You are gold to me
And I love the way you shine
I love the way you shine
Love the way you shine
