Treasure Lyrics
[Verse 1: Tori Kelly]
I was not waiting for
Your love before it washed up on this shore, darling
I never really get
This feeling in my chest
[Chorus: Tori Kelly]
It's a new day to discover, so many things to uncover
Even when the tide is high, out here its just you and I
Perfect how we fit together, being 'round you is a pleasure
Like the way gold lasts forever
I feel like I found my treasure
[Verse 2: Tori Kelly]
When I first fell into those deep pools in your eyes
I thought I would be fine
Cause I never really get this feeling in my chest
[Chorus: Tori Kelly]
It's a new day to discover, so many things to uncover
Even when the tide is high, out here its just you and I
Perfect how we fit together, being 'round you is a pleasure
Like the way gold lasts forever
I feel like I found my treasure
[Bridge: Tori Kelly]
I wasn't even looking for you
My skies were already blue
Now, you are to hold on to
These eyes are fixed on you
When did love come into play?
I could never turn away, now
I was not waiting for
Your love before it washed up on this shore, darling
I never really get
This feeling in my chest
[Chorus: Tori Kelly]
It's a new day to discover, so many things to uncover
Even when the tide is high, out here its just you and I
Perfect how we fit together, being 'round you is a pleasure
Like the way gold lasts forever
I feel like I found my treasure
[Verse 2: Tori Kelly]
When I first fell into those deep pools in your eyes
I thought I would be fine
Cause I never really get this feeling in my chest
[Chorus: Tori Kelly]
It's a new day to discover, so many things to uncover
Even when the tide is high, out here its just you and I
Perfect how we fit together, being 'round you is a pleasure
Like the way gold lasts forever
I feel like I found my treasure
[Bridge: Tori Kelly]
I wasn't even looking for you
My skies were already blue
Now, you are to hold on to
These eyes are fixed on you
When did love come into play?
I could never turn away, now

Genius Annotation
Treasure is a simple song that describes Tori’s falling for a guy she didn’t think she’d like romantically.
She uses the ocean and more specifically “treasure” that you may find in or around the sea as an analogy to the guy she’s found. Some lyrics that show this are:
Your love before it washed up on this shore…
When I first fell into those deep pools in your eyes…
It’s a new day to discover, so many things to uncover…
