Met you in October, I had nothing to lose
Dressed up like a country girl, I knew you'd approve
Planted seeds for hopeful dreams, but nothing would bloom
Knew I had to kiss you on the hallowing moon

Turquoise and diamonds, not an obvious choice
We are a perfect combination of souls
No one understands it, but you're my marigold
How we got together was so spiritual

I thought the garden died
But I guess those tears we cried
Helped bring us back to life
And now we're layin' on a bed of marigolds
Layin' on a bed of marigolds
Forever layin' on a bed of marigolds

Now I get it when they say that love grows
Your affection leads to something I didn't know
That you would bring me home just like a marigold
Ooh-ooh

I thought the garden died
But I guess those tears we cried
Helped bring us back to life
And now we're layin' on a bed of marigolds
Layin' on a bed of marigolds
Forever layin' on a bed of marigolds

They said we'd end up hurt
They said it wouldn't work
Our love can't be controlled
And now we're layin' on a bed of marigolds

I thought the garden died
But I guess those tears we cried
Helped bring us back to life
And now we're layin' on a bed of marigolds (Love is golden)
Layin' on a bed of marigolds (Marigolds)
Forever layin' on a bed of marigolds
(Love is golden, marigolds)
