[Verse 1]
You gave me solid gold
But to my touch, it felt cold
You gave me something real
I saw sorcery, I saw alchemy
[Pre-Chorus 1]
God, I was lonely
Stuck in my own skin
In spite of my pride
I finally let you in
[Chorus]
And now I see it, now I'm certain

Trusting that our love
Our love is enough
Solid gold and perfect to the touch

[Pre-Chorus 2]

And now I see it, now I'm certain
I see you with my eyes opened
Trusting that our love
Our love is enough
Solid gold and perfect to the touch
[Bridge]
You'll never be lonely
Never be lonely not again
I'm letting you in and now
You'll never be lonely
Never be lonely not again
No, no, no
[Chorus]
And now I see it, now I'm certain
I see you with my eyes opened
Trusting that our love
Our love is enough
Solid gold and perfect to the touch
