"Gold" lyrics

"Gold"

(I got a feeling that the night is on my side)

Oh, I don't care, I gotta celebrate the moment
Gonna own it before it blows away, blows away
Oh, beat my snare, I got it burning in my heart when it's dark
Can you feel the flame, feel the flame?

But there's a part of me
That used to go and hide in peace
But now I'm touching the ceiling
I've found something to believe in
And now all I see
So many possibilities
But now I'm touching the ceiling
I've found something to believe in

But oh, I got a feeling that the night is on my side
(I got it, I got it, I'm gold, shining so bright, yeah I'm gold)
Oh, I got a feeling that I'm gonna be alright
(I got it, I got it, I'm gold, I'm shining so bright, yeah I'm gold)
There's nothing better than to hear the sound, hear the sound
The sound of thunder when I hit the ground
Oh, I got a feeling that tonight is on my side
(I got it, I got it, I'm gold, shining so bright, yeah I'm gold)

Step by step, I got power in the way that I walk
And I'm here to stay, here to stay
And I feel so high, like a rocket in the sky
And I got nothing in my way, in my way

But there's a part of me
That used to go and hide in peace
But now I'm touching the ceiling
I've found something to believe in
And now all I see
So many possibilities
But now I'm touching the ceiling
I've found something to believe in

But oh, I got a feeling that tonight is on my side
(I got it, I got it, I'm gold, shining so bright, yeah I'm gold)
Oh, I got a feeling that I'm gonna be alright
(I got it, I got it, I'm gold, I'm shining so bright, yeah I'm gold)
There's nothing better than to hear the sound, hear the sound
The sound of thunder when I hit the ground
Oh, I got a feeling that tonight is on my side
(I got it, I got it, I'm gold, shining so bright, yeah I'm gold)

I've got a feeling, I'm shining gold (I'm shining gold)
I've got a feeling (I've got a feeling)
I'm shining gold (I'm shining gold)
Oh, I got a feeling that tonight is on my side (I'm shining gold)
Oh, I got a feeling that I'm gonna be alright
(I got it, I got it, I'm gold, I'm shining so bright, yeah I'm gold)

There's nothing better than to hear the sound, hear the sound
The sound of thunder when I hit the ground
Oh, I got a feeling that tonight is on my side
(I got it, I got it, I'm gold, shining so bright, yeah I'm gold)

Paloma Faith said of this song, "'Gold' is the only song on the album which wasn't recorded in my basement. It was recorded at Steve Mac's studio, who penned the song with the wonderful Sigrid. As a result it embodies freedom and joy and a celebration of life, perfect escapism for a time when we need to remember we are free spirits."
The video for "Gold" was filmed in Hackney. Paloma Faith was in the early stages of her pregnancy during the filming. She said about it, "I still hadn't told anyone I was pregnant so I had to pretend it was all fine, which would have been OK… if I wasn't hanging off a giant yellow digger! It was physically demanding but the people who worked on the video and the other dancers were joyous and kept me so buoyant I didn't realise until I got home I was shattered!"
