[Verse 1]
It's been a long time since I saw your face
Dancing in the water of Half Moon Bay
I lost a lot of friends along the way but I'll be fine
I'm in a Golden State of mind
[Verse 2]
I like it on the freeway when nobody’s going my way
Thought I needed money, now I wanna give it away
'Cause love is all around and it don't cost a dime
[Chorus]
I'm in a Golden State of mind
Every bit of wonder puts a star in my eye
There's no valley I can't cross or mountain I can't climb
I'm in a Golden State of mind
[Verse 3]
Was it the fireworks drumming over Chinatown
Or was it my heart exploding when you came around?
Hard to tell a tear from the city lights in your eyes
But ever since the night you said goodbye, I've been riding high
[Chorus]
I'm in a Golden State of mind
Every bit of wonder puts a star in my eye
There's no valley I can't cross or mountain I can't climb
I'm in a Golden State of mind
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Ooh, held you close 'til the last notes played
Ooh, found myself when I let you fly away
Ooh, found myself when I let you fly
I'm in a Golden State of mind
