[Verse]
The gravel hums a low-grade song
Dust clouds chasing us all night long
Old coolers and a borrowed tent
Thinking back on where the seasons went
We're trading stories like currency
Bound by the roots of a cedar tree

[Chorus]
And the firelight is a golden friend!
Laughing like the summer won't ever end!
No clock to wind and no sun to chase!
Just the ghosts of a smile on every face!
Yeah, the light is a golden friend!

[Verse]
Salt on the iron, the smoke starts to rise
Hunger reflected in everyone's eyes
Sharing the bread and the wine from the glass
Watching the heat shimmer over the grass
Nobody's leaving, nobody's gone
Just sitting right here 'til the break of the dawn

[Chorus]
And the firelight is a golden friend!
Laughing like the summer won't ever end!
No clock to wind and no sun to chase!
Just the ghosts of a smile on every face!
Yeah, the light is a golden friend!

[Bridge]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Everything's alright tonight

[Chorus]
And the firelight is a golden friend!
Laughing like the summer won't ever end!
No clock to wind and no sun to chase!
Just the ghosts of a smile on every face!
Yeah, the light is a golden friend!

[Outro]
Just the ghosts of a smile...
(Yeah.)
