gold rush

gold rush, the third song on evermore, is a song depicting the jealousy she has because she is attracted to someone who everyone else is. Because of this she has to stop picturing her life with them. She is singing about dreaming for someone that everybody else wants. She is daydreaming about someone then snapping out of it. She is catching herself getting the idea of this person stuck in her head.

[Intro] Gleaming, twinkling Eyes like sinking ships on waters So inviting, I almost jump in [Chorus] But I don't like a gold rush, gold rush I don't like anticipatin' my face in a red flush I don't like that anyone would die to feel your touch Everybody wants you Everybody wonders what it would be like to love you Walk past, quick brush I don't like slow motion, double vision in rose blush I don't like that falling feels like flying 'til the bone crush Everybody wants you But I don't like a gold rush [Verse 1] What must it be like to grow up that beautiful? With your hair falling into place like dominoes I see me padding across your wooden floors With my Eagles T-shirt hanging from the door [Refrain] At dinner parties, I call you out on your contrarian shit And the coastal town we wandered 'round had nеver seen a love as pure as it And thеn it fades into the gray of my day-old tea 'Cause it could never be [Chorus] 'Cause I don't like a gold rush, gold rush I don't like anticipatin' my face in a red flush I don't like that anyone would die to feel your touch Everybody wants you Everybody wonders what it would be like to love you Walk past, quick brush I don't like slow motion, double vision in rose blush I don't like that falling feels like flying 'til the bone crush Everybody wants you But I don't like a gold rush [Verse 2] What must it be like to grow up that beautiful? With your hair falling into place like dominoes My mind turns your life into folklore I can't dare to dream about you anymore [Refrain] At dinner parties, I won't call you out on your contrarian shit And the coastal town we never found will never see a love as pure as it 'Cause it fades into the gray of my day-old tea 'Cause it will never be [Outro] Gleaming, twinkling Eyes like sinking ships on waters So inviting, I almost jump in
