"Black and Gold" is a song originally recorded by Sam Sparro and later covered by Adele on Radio 1's Live Lounge in 2008. The song has been covered by several other artists as well, including Katy Perry.
The fish swam Out of the ocean And grew legs And they started walking And the apes climbed down From the trees And grew tall And they started talking
And the stars Fell out of the sky And my tears Rolled into the ocean Now I'm looking For a reason why You even set my world Into motion
'cause if you're not Really here Then the stars Don't even matter Now I'm filled To the top with fear But it's all Just a bunch of matter 'cause if you're not Really here Then I don't want To be either I wanna be next to you Black and gold Black and gold Black and gold
I looked up Into the grey sky And see a thousand eyes Staring back And all around These golden beacons I see nothing but black
I feel a way of something Beyond them I don't see What I can feel If vision Is the only validation Then most of my life Isn't real
'cause if you're not Really here Then the stars Don't even matter Now I'm filled To the top with fear But it's all Just a bunch of matter 'cause if you're not Really here Then I don't want To be either I wanna be next to you Black and gold Black and gold Black and gold
