Golden refleja un deseo de libertad y escapismo. Harry Styles expresó que la canción es como un tipo de abrazo y un mensaje de esperanza para que la gente no se sienta sola. La canción fue inspirada por las experiencias de viaje y momentos de soledad del artista.
Golden, golden, golden as I open my eyes Hold it, focus, hoping, take me back to the light I know you were way too bright for me I'm hopeless, broken, so you wait for me in the sky Brown my skin just right e --------------------------------------------------------------------------- You're so golden
You're so golden
Because hearts get broken
I don't want to be alone e ------15-19-12----------15-19-14---------------22-17----------------------- I don't want to be alone when it ends Don't wanna let you know
But I can feel it take a hold (I can feel it take a hold) e --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Of who I am, and all I've ever known e --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Golden
You're so golden
You're so golden You're so golden I'm out of my head, and I know that you're scared Because hearts get broken
(Golden, golden, golden, golden) (Golden, golden, golden, golden) (Golden, golden, golden, golden) (Golden, golden, golden, golden) (Golden, golden, golden, golden) (Golden, golden, golden, golden) (Golden, golden, golden, golden) I know that you're scared because I'm so open e ------17---15--------17---14-------17----15--------------------------------
You're so golden I don't want to be alone You're so golden You're so golden You're so golden I'm out of my head, and I know that you're scared Because hearts get broken
