Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
The sunset falls in Wichita, yellow dances through the blue Wheat fields catch a glimpse of heaven, makes me think of you And even when you're miles away, You're always on my mind Lord knows you're in my heart Even when I close my eyes You are golden, Precious as a prayer flying up through the air While the rain is falling Golden, timeless as a kiss Baby I don't wanna miss another perfect moment To tell you, how you make me feel The day you strolled in, my heart was stolen Cause you are golden Smallest parts of who you are Are everything to me From the way you laugh to the way you cry To the way you love on me Shadows run and darkness fades When you come around My single star amongst the gray Always shining down Yeah you are golden, Precious as a prayer flying up through the air While the rain is falling Golden, timeless as a kiss Baby I don't wanna miss another perfect moment To tell you, how you make me feel The day you strolled in, my heart was stolen Cause you are golden Lovely Oh so hard to find Yeah you are goodness, forgiveness Of the purest kind Oh yeah From the day you strolled in, my heart was stolen You'll be the hand I'm holding, When the heavens open Cause you are golden, yeah.
