Lyrics Gold - Beverley Knight

Gold

Some people never recognise it Though it’s right before their eyes
And shines in all it’s glory
They never ever see
They choose something that looks just like it And it may glitter all the time
But gold it will never be I guess you never held on to quality
Or you would of recognised by now
Something so special so true
When it’s standing right infront of you
Chorus:
I’m gold babe
Catch me in the slipstream
Passing by the fools who just don’t know
Pure gold babe
You’re looking at the real thing
If you knew my worth you wouldn’t let go Oh no
Gold lies in rivers undiscovered
Hidden from the site of those
Who don’t know what to look for
(they aint never gonna find it)
Sometimes the value is uncovered
Other times it’s cast aside
By those who are just unsure
I guess you never held on to quality
Or you would of recognised by now
Something so special so true
When she’s standing right infront of you
Chorus:
I’m gold babe
Catch me in the slipstream
Passing by the fools who just don’t know
Pure gold babe
You’re looking at the real thing
If you knew my worth you wouldn’t let go Oh no
All the things you failed to see
Separated you from me I decide who wins my time
And who comes inside yeah
'cause what is true and what is real
Finds a way of being revealed
I don’t have to even try
'cause i am cerified… pure…
Chorus:
Gold baby
Catch me in the slipstream
Passing by the fools who just don’t know
Pure gold babe
You’re looking at the real thing
If you knew my worth you wouldn’t let go Im gold baby
Catch me in the slipstream
Passing by the fools who just don’t know
Pure gold babe
You’re looking at the real thing
If you knew my worth you wouldn’t let go Oh no
