We felt invincible crossing the Golden State

Wheels turning round over the golden gates

The fog rolls in



Covering the fishing boats, empty and quiet

Living by a ruse, taking on every fight



Swinging like we've got nothing to lose

Going down to prove who's got the bigger heart

No matter what happens tonight in a rush of gold



It's not always what it seems

But sometimes it will be

Exactly what you need



We felt invisible drifting across the rails

Sunken in the stones

And the half way homes of the Presidio

The lights went low



The field was wet, the wind at your back

Standing at the plate - waiting for the perfect pitch



Swinging like you've got nothing to lose

Going down to prove who's got the bigger heart

No matter what happens tonight in a rush of gold



The needle and the thread and feathers you collect

Make a set of wings put them on your back

Get up, get out in a rush of gold



It's not always what it seems

But sometimes it will be

Exactly what you need
