Turning Gold

Verse 1

Concrete

Hot enough to melt

Yellow suns drip on the curb

I saw

I felt

I knew

Ice cubes rattling in plastic

Sweat beads on the glass

Ticking clocks stop

Chorus

Wait for the heat

Wait for the heat

June is just a mile away

Wait for the heat

Everything is turning gold

Everything is turning gold

Finally

Finally

Post-Chorus

Yeah

Gonna feel it

Gonna feel it

Ooh

Verse 2

Screen door

Slams against the frame

Dusty boots and denim shorts

Long days

Long shadows

Long nights

Salt air blowing through the kitchen

Lemonade and bitter rime

Heavy sky

Waiting

Waiting on the solstice

Chorus

Wait for the heat

Wait for the heat

June is just a mile away

Wait for the heat

Everything is turning gold

Everything is turning gold

Finally

Finally

Post-Chorus

Yeah

Gonna feel it

Gonna feel it

Ooh

Bridge

No more shivering

No more huddling

No more hiding

When the green leaves show

Then the river starts to flow

And the garden starts to grow

Open up the window

Let the winter go

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Wait for the heat

Wait for the heat

June is just a mile away

Wait for the heat

Everything is turning gold

Everything is turning gold

Finally

Finally

Post-Chorus

Yeah

Gonna feel it

Gonna feel it

Ooh

Outro

Almost here

Almost here

Watch the mercury climb

Summer is coming

Summer is coming

Summer is coming

Yeah

Ooh
