Lyrics
You light up the dark
forgiveness is hard
eight hours together but worlds apart
I’m like the filling between
two pieces of lemon macaroon
made a wish on a gold dandelion
that I’d never leave his room
Je ne sais pas si tu me connais?
but I don’t think you do
yellow gold yellow cadmium yellow xx
She pours honey on wounds
don’t tell me what to do
Je ne sais pas si même le soleil
(I don’t know if even the sun)
could help me forget about you?
and I want to hide from the light from the light
Yellow like something that’s good
but hurts cause it’s healing you to
Je ne sais pas où aller
(I don’t know where to go)
but maybe together with you?
you walked me right into this
no one will do
Cadmium yellow
You had me at hello
hell no, hell no
Not one of two
blonde hair works on you
like curry spice and icey eyes
Fall leaves that were only just green
now they’re cadmium yellow
rich honey rich gold hell no hell no
you walked me right into this color
no other will work for you
darling you know this
like saffron and lemons and sunshine
you got me i love you in sickness
and health oh hell no
She pours butter on wounds
always changing her moods
Je ne sais pas si vous voulez dormir
(I don’t know if you want to sleep with me)
avec moi or just maybe you do?
but I wanna cry cuz you
tied my hands in knots
Yellow like headbands and short hair
Gold star for showing you care
Je ne sais pas si vous me détestez?
(I don’t know if you hate me)
But I’d rather remain aware
So I’m gonna fly far away from
your golden lies
You light up the dark
forgiveness is hard
eight hours together but worlds apart
I’m like the filling between
two pieces of lemon macaroon
made a wish on a gold dandelion
that I’d never leave his room
Je ne sais pas si tu me connais?
but I don’t think you do
yellow gold yellow cadmium yellow xx
She pours honey on wounds
don’t tell me what to do
Je ne sais pas si même le soleil
(I don’t know if even the sun)
could help me forget about you?
and I want to hide from the light from the light
Yellow like something that’s good
but hurts cause it’s healing you to
Je ne sais pas où aller
(I don’t know where to go)
but maybe together with you?
you walked me right into this
no one will do
You light up the dark
forgiveness is hard
eight hours together but worlds apart
I’m like the filling between
two pieces of lemon macaroon
made a wish on a gold dandelion
that I’d never leave his room
Je ne sais pas si tu me connais?
but I don’t think you do
yellow gold yellow cadmium yellow xx
She pours honey on wounds
don’t tell me what to do
Je ne sais pas si même le soleil
(I don’t know if even the sun)
could help me forget about you?
and I want to hide from the light from the light
Yellow like something that’s good
but hurts cause it’s healing you to
Je ne sais pas où aller
(I don’t know where to go)
but maybe together with you?
you walked me right into this
no one will do
Cadmium yellow
You had me at hello
hell no, hell no
Not one of two
blonde hair works on you
like curry spice and icey eyes
