Body Gold lyrics

[Intro: Oh Wonder]
Before you came round, my heart would never beat much faster
Before you came round, I was ready to slow down
Before you came round, I was heading for a small disaster
Before you came round, I was ready to blow me down

[Verse 1: Josh Man]
Josh Man and I'm back with another one
Like I told y'all, never slow down, never pump the brakes
It's a showdown in a ghost town, but you know now
Heavy is my eyelids, need to get some rest
'Cause I'm so held down by the pressures of the whole town
Go now, Mr. Joshua, oh you know now
Never back down, never keep frown, like I told man
"I'm a show, man, you a faux man"
Tell me all of this like I don't know
What it takes to go go, yo-yo, come and get some froyo
With a real kid like me (look)
Hop inside my Civic, we'll speed (book)
I just want to explore your mind
And paint your body gold all over outside
Just give me some time
We could rule the world, my queen and I

[Chorus: Oh Wonder]
Let it go, paint my body gold
Take our bodies higher and higher and higher
We can go, until the morning glow
We can go higher and higher and higher
[Verse 2: Oh Wonder]
Before I was found, I felt like I could drain the ocean
Before I was found, I didn't want to breathe out
Now my soul beats a sound, loud enough to quiet the thunder
A love with no doubt, and now I'm never gonna slow down
Never gonna slow

[Verse 3: Josh Man]
With a body made of gold, who needs to mine this?
I just got one goal in mind, I'm gonna mine it
Need you like I'm in hospital and you an IV
None beside me except you, oh you wind me
Up and down and left and right and back and forth
A tug of war, I get pulled around
I get washed up on the seashore
Need more of your love, I'm craving your body
You a blessing from above, I'm glad you're my shawty
Tried and tried to find my way
To find myself, like everyday
The other people are irrelevant
I'm telling you, I'm in love with you
And you know that you're my baby
It's clear because my heart on my sleeve
Girl, it's just you and me against the world
Body gold, body gold, and it shows, how you know
And I tried, I tried, I tried to tell you
All the times you cried, you cried about me
But I need you girl 'cause you're my other half
And in time, I really hope you can believe that
[Bridge: Josh Man]
I need you like humans need water
You, me, we could have a daughter
Don't you see that we are like a match made in Heaven?
Girl I don't see way out
Baby we could talk our way out
Body made of gold so shimmering
Glitter you my golden girl, 24k baby

[Outro: Oh Wonder]
And we will walk with our feet on the ground
And we will talk with our head in the clouds
And we will walk with our feet on the ground
And we will talk with our head in the clouds
And we will

[Skit: FORREST]
Josh
Josh Man
You sleeping?
You sleeping? Get up
Get up, boy
You got work to do, remember?
They need you, the people need you
You got work to do, man
Get up
Get up big fella
