[English]

You got that look in your eyes, eyes

I can tell you had bad dreams last night

Let me take you in my arms, you can cry, cry

Let me love you 'til you feel alright

'Cause I am yours, you are mine, you are mine, mine (yeah)

Not going anywhere, I am standing by your side (uh-uh)

I will love you 'til the end of time, time

I will love you 'til the day we die (let's go)

Don't fear, baby (uh-uh, uh-uh), 'cause you and me are golden

When you can't breathe (uh-uh, uh-uh), it's you that I'll be holdin' (yeah)

Yes, I'm all in, through thick and thin (yeah)

This is good loving (uh-huh, uh-huh), you and me are golden

I gotta give it to her, she got a mean GoldenEye game (oh)

Honestly, it's not a lot of O's to fit the rhyme scheme

But f- it, for the sake of being overly cheesy

I think it's cute we both like our eggs over easy

And lately, I've been losing at love

But when you lookin' in the Lower East Side, you're bound to find nothing but bad luck

Days can drift by, but I don't give a damn if you with me

Even if the earth exploded, I probably wouldn't notice

Never has another narrowed down the field to nada

Spend the days shoppin' at Target 'cause she's not concerned with Prada

We make hand-me-downs look designer

Golden's in the eye of the beholder

Love ya, girl

Don't fear, baby (don't fear, baby), 'cause you and me are golden

When you can't breathe (let me feel you breathe), it's you that I'll be holdin' (yeah)

Yes, I'm all in (I'm all in), through thick and thin

This is good loving (this is good lovin'), you and me are golden

(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah) you and me are golden

(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah) you and me are golden

(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah) you and me are golden

(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah) you and me are golden

And honestly, she ain't even gotta say much

I'll wait a whole day for that Midas touch (yeah)

Minus the fact she's the finest eyelids could open to

My Highness, I'd travel the world and back in hopes to glow with you (ah)

She's the Patti Mayonnaise to my Doug Funnie

Every kiss is 24 carats, no Bugs Bunny

I used to live wild (wild), she made me slow it down (down)

Who knows? Maybe one day, we'll have a golden child

And that's word to Eddie Murphy

I wouldn't trade places if you threatened to hurt me

Two peas in a pod that could never be open

I'm cool all by myself, but together we golden, yeah (let's do it)

You got that look in your eyes, eyes

I can tell you had bad dreams last night

Let me take you in my arms, you can cry, cry

Let me love you 'til you feel alright (yeah)

'Cause I am yours, you are mine, you are mine, mine (uh-huh)

Not going anywhere, I am standing by your side (never)

I will love you 'til the end of time, time (yeah)

I will love you 'til the day we die (come on)

Don't fear, baby (yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah), 'cause you and me are golden

When you can't breathe, it's you that I'll be holdin' (yeah)

Yes, I'm all in, through thick and thin (uh-huh)

This is good loving (whoo), you and me are golden

We are golden

I ain't going anywhere

Yeah
