Ashley Fredette - Golden Retriever Lyrics

Have you ever been with someone
Who gives you chills, makes you not wanna screw up
And end something amazing before it starts?
But at the same time
Being cool is overrated
It's just not fun, makes me kinda jaded
Don't wanna live my life always standing guard
And all you wanna do is take a leap
My pooch, Dolly would tell you, please, oh
Why would you try to dim the light of a shining star?
So, shout from the rooftops! Go for the big hug!
Love with all your heart!
And be the golden retriever you are
You don't know your energy's contagious
Maybe, just maybe, they're waitin' on you to just
Make the move, have the courage to break the ice
(Honey, wouldn't that be nice?)
So, ask for what you want and deserve, 'cause
They can't read your mind, and you only live once
So get those cuddles, let 'em see your light
You know, the right person won't turn you down
They'll love you as you are, from your boots to your crown, oh
Why would you try to dim the light of a shining star?
So, shout from the rooftops! Go for the big hug!
Love with all your heart!
And be the golden retriever you are
Oh, don't you waste your precious time
Playing it safe
You'll regret it when you are
Old and gray
Trust me when I say
Shout from the rooftops! Go for the big hug!
Love with all your heart!
And be the golden retriever you are
Kiss who you want to! Leave 'em with no room!
Whine when they depart
And be the golden retriever you are
Always conspire to seek your desires!
The dog thinks not to doubt her spark
So, be the golden retriever you are
