Leon Bridges - Gold-Diggers Sound Lyrics






Born Again

Spinning around, spinning around
Feeling numb, can't feel
Removed from what I'm in
But closing my eyes, I feel closer to you
I find peace in the valley of your truth
I try to be still, chasing the memories inside

Feeling born again, feeling joy again
When all else fails
Your love will last forever
Your love will last forever

Sit still, take it slow, soak it in
Even though I miss the people that I love
But it feels good to be alone

Feeling born again, feeling joy again
When all else fails
Your love will last forever
Your love will last forever

Feeling born again from end to end
When all else fails
Your love will last forever
Forever

Sit still, take it slow, soak it in
Even though I miss the people that I love
But it feels good coming home, yeah

Motorbike

We don't stop but the time do
Lovers in another life, let me remind you
Look back, see me behind you
When it feels good you don't have to try to

And if you say so, if you say so, then let's go
I know you're all that I wanted since I met ya
What do I gotta do to get ya?

On the back of my motorbike
Switch lanes, 29, ooh (ooh)
It's whatever you like, ooh
On the back of my motorbike
Write your name in the sky, ooh (ooh)
It's whatever you like, we can ride, ride, ride

Girl, go ahead and leave your keys on the dresser
You ain't gonna need 'em tonight
You're hotter than a desert, don't mean no pressure
I just wanna make you feel right

And if you say so, if you say so, then let's go
I know you're all that I wanted since I met ya
What do I gotta do to get ya?

On the back of my motorbike
Switch lanes, 29, ooh (ooh)
It's whatever you like, ooh
On the back of my motorbike
Write your name in the sky, ooh (ooh)
It's whatever you like, we can ride, ride, ride

We don't stop but the time do, do
When it feels good, you don't have to try to, to

On the back of my motorbike
Switch lanes, 29, ooh (ooh)
It's whatever you like, ooh
On the back of my motorbike
Write your name in the sky, ooh (ooh)
It's whatever you like, we can ride, ride, ride

What are we doing tonight?
Let's take a dip in Forrest Hill
What are we doing tonight?

Why Don't You Touch Me

I've been feeling way too undesired
Before the flame went out, all around us was all on fire
I can feel the distance go for miles
But cold is all you are, and it's causing chills
What's with all this? You won't even talk about it

Can you be honest?
Is you just running out of thrills?
'Cause every time you put me second, yeah
Girl, make me feel wanted
Don't leave me out here unfulfilled
'Cause we're slowly getting disconnected, yeah

If you still in love all like you say it
Then why don't you touch me? Yeah
I'm dressing to the nines and your eye's straying
Oh, why don't you touch me? Yeah
Why don't, why don't, why don't, yeah, yeah

It's been so hard to stay close
If there's a problem, say so
Tell me why you never touch me no more
Maybe I've been too possessive
Maybe I get too aggressive
Maybe 'cause I bring up what we should've deaded
Hard to be real, but don't deny what you can't feel, girl
Maybe I just need attention
Maybe I'm not new enough to stay in love and so it's ending
Tell me it ain't ending, babe

If you still in love all like you say it
Then why don't you touch me? Yeah
I'm dressing to the nines and your eye's straying
Girl, why don't you touch me? Yeah
Why don't, why don't, why don't, yeah, yeah

Can you be honest?
Is you just running out of thrills?
'Cause every time you put me second, yeah
Girl, make me feel wanted
Don't leave me out here unfulfilled
'Cause we're slowly getting disconnected, yeah

If you still in love all like you say it
Then why don't you touch me? Yeah
I'm dressing to the nines and your eye's straying
Oh, why don't you touch me? Yeah
Why don't, why don't, why don't, yeah, yeah

You say I'm thinking too hard on this
But I don't feel your love, no

Magnolias

I don't have to lie
I won't waste your time
It's just been one night

But you're all I need in the world
If you cold, just put on my shirt, girl
Baby, don't leave, 'cause I want you again
Wake up beside you again and again (woo)

Smell the fresh cut magnolias, yeah
Tell me what you want, let me spoil ya
Put you on top, I would never lower ya
And you know you're bad, know you bad
Be the waves crashing on the shore
Dig down deep to the core of ya
Organic love, straight from the soil

Do you feel the same?
I can see it on your face
So tell me why?
Can't just run away, leave today
'Cause you're all I need in this world
If you're cold, just put on my shirt, girl
Baby, don't leave 'cause I want you again
Wake up beside you again and again (woo)

Smell the fresh cut magnolias, yeah
Tell me what you want, let me spoil ya
Put you on top, I would never lower ya
And you know you're bad, know you bad
Be the waves crashing on the shore
Dig down deep to the core of ya
Organic love, straight from the soil

Do you feel the same? (Yeah)
I can see it in your face
Nothing feels better than being here with you
All I think of is what I wanna do
Wanna, baby

Smell the fresh cut magnolias, yeah (baby)
Tell me what you want, let me spoil ya (ooh baby)
Put you on top, I would never lower ya (oh)
And you know you're bad, know you bad
Be the waves crashing on the shore
Dig down deep to the core of ya
Organic love, straight from the soil

Details

They don't need you, need you like I do

They don't see the details of you

Who gon' please you, please you like I do?

And love every detail, detail of you



How you look in the car when I'm driving a little fast

How you pause when you talk when you're trying not to laugh

It's the littlest things about you that I don't forget, no, no

The way that you move, baby, you

In all that you do



Honey, no, no

They don't need you, need you like I do

They don't see the details of you

Who gon' please you, please you like I do?

And love every detail, detail of your



In a flower-printed dress, so hot but you play it cool, yeah

And pretend not to notice everybody noticing you, yeah

And the closer I get, there's more that I never knew, no, no

Falling for you, ooh

You're every expression

Paint you with both my eyes closed

No one's got my attention, no, no

It's all for you



Honey, no, no

They don't need you, need you like I do

They don't see the details of you

Who gon' please you, please you like I do?

And love every detail of you

Sho Nuff

Standing in the doorway
Silhouette on the wall
Connected to your body
Physical and spiritual

And you know what I need
From my crown to my feet
Oh, please, baby, please
Before I fall to my knees

Tell me how you like it
I just wanna try it
Tease me but providing
You got me excited

But don't rush
That's that feeling I need more of
Sho nuff, babe
Don't rush
That's that feeling I need more of
Sho nuff, babe

Say my name, say my name
Let it roll of your tongue
This is what it feels like
When two become one

And I know what you need
From your crown to your feet
Oh, please, baby, please
I'm down on my knees

But don't rush
That's that feeling I need more of (sho nuff)
Sho nuff, babe
Don't rush
That's that feeling I need more of (sho nuff)
Sho nuff, babe

Do-do-doo, do-do-doo-doo
Sho nuff (sho nuff), sho nuff, babe
Do-do-doo, do-do-doo-doo
Sho nuff (sho nuff), sho nuff, babe

Tell me how you like it
I just wanna try it
Tease me but providing
You got me excited

But don't rush
That's that feeling I need more of
Sho nuff, babe
But don't rush
That's that feeling I need more of
Sho nuff, babe

Do-do-doo (ooh)
Sho nuff (sho nuff), sho nuff, babe
Do-do-doo (ooh)
Sho nuff (sho nuff), sho nuff, babe

Hangin' on to every minute and I don't ever want it to end
When it's over, start to miss it and then I just want you again

Sweeter

Hoping for a life more sweeter
Instead I'm just a story repeating
Why do I fear with skin dark as night?
Can't feel peace with those judging eyes

I thought we moved on from the darker days
Did the words of the King disappear in the air
Like a butterfly?
Somebody should hand you a felony
'Cause you stole from me
My chance to be

Hoping for a life more sweeter
Instead I'm just a story repeating
Why do I fear with skin dark as night?
Can't feel peace with those judging eyes

The tears of my Mother rain, rain over me
My sisters and my brothers sing, sing over me
And I wish I had another day
But it's just another day

Hoping for a life more sweeter
Instead I'm just a story repeating
Why do I fear with skin dark as night?
Can't feel peace with those judging eyes

Hoping for a life more sweeter

Dont Worry

We been runnin' 'round covered in gas, playin' with matches, oh
We've been runnin' this thing, burnin' it down, down
Sweetly talkin' but you and I both know
Keep on runnin' it down, the world that we ignored

I don't have much but I give you love
I used to say that kind of stuff
Like a broken clock, stopped givin' you time
Now you're takin' your love to another guy (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Tell me what he gon' do? What he gon' do?
How he gonna make sweet love to you? (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
And mmm, if he hurts you, know I'm runnin' him down, runnin' him down (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Don't worry 'bout, don't worry 'bout me
Don't worry 'bout, don't worry 'bout me

Been a few months since I called your phone
I ain't mad, but I'm movin' on
Yeah, I gotta new lil' thing in fact
Nothin' wrong, it's in the past

Don't worry 'bout, don't worry 'bout me
Don't worry 'bout, don't worry 'bout me

Shut you out, you know I tried
Said I got over you but I lied
Morning love and morning fights
I miss it all (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Said you went down to Corpus
I miss you in the doorway (ooh)
Stayin' up all night
Silly, silly me

Yeah
It wasn't just one time
Baby, I've been livin' with your lies too long
Callin' past midnight, having to pick you up on my way home
I don't mind if you get a little wild
I just ask that you be there for me
'Cause you had been slippin' for a while
And I needed to find someone to give me what I need

Don't worry 'bout, don't worry 'bout me (no, don't you worry about me)
(Don't worry 'bout me)
Don't worry 'bout, don't worry 'bout me

I've been runnin' from myself
But there's something different this time
Every other night, you got my mind runnin' wild

Take me on a slow ride
Park the car and stay inside
Can't forget your kisses, sweet
Remember how your body be
Always were the perfect fit
I know how you like it
Sip it down like moonshine
Hold you in the moonlight
No one sees me like you, babe
Let your tears roll down my face
I don't wanna go back
Girl, don't do him like that
Okay, then I have to leave
Don't worry 'bout me

Don't worry 'bout, don't worry 'bout me (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Don't worry 'bout, don't worry 'bout me (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Don't worry 'bout, don't worry 'bout me (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Don't worry 'bout, don't worry 'bout me

Blue Mesas

(One, two, three)



Ain't no peace at the top

I don't know how much air I got

I will never get used to this

'Cause it ain't what it seems, and don't nobody check on me

It's a slow way to go all alone



How you get lonely even though

You surrounded by the ones you know?

Killing myself, saying these words

There's a hurting deep down in my soul

But I learned not to let it show

Do I need help?

No



There's a price I'ma pay for hiding feelings I don't say

Keep my cool or lose my way

Tried to talk to the wind, but mmm, just can't pretend

I'm a man, man without a friend



How you get lonely even though

You surrounded by the ones you know?

Killing myself, saying these words

There's a hurting right now in my soul

But I learned never let it show

Do I need help?

No, no, no



How you get lonely even though

You surrounded by the ones you know?

Killing myself, saying these words

There's a hurting deep down in my soul

But I learned never let it show

Do I need help?

No, no, no, no, no
