Beverley Knight - Gold Lyrics






Some people never recognise it
Though it's right before their eyes
And shines in all its 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 woulda recognised by now
Something so special so true
When it's standing right in front of you

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 [x2]

Oh no!

Gold lies in rivers undiscovered
Hidden from the sight of those
Who don't know what to look for
(They ain't 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 in front of you

[Chorus]

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'm certified¡-pure¡-

[Chorus (x2)]

  40. c.... m....

    She could be singing about herself, Britain's best kept female singing secret. How Bev has not made it big worldwide is a mystery to me. What a voice. Well at least us Brits have had the privilege. She sang at one of my events years ago as the featured cabaret after dinner entertainment and she was amazing. I clearly remember her turning up in the afternoon to soundcheck and meeting her in passing and how lovely and down to earth she was, just so natural and friendly.

  41. M.... M....

    guest you never hold on t quality

  42. S.... M....

    P.... N....

  48. l.... ....

    this song makes me feel so at peace with myself. Not just just because the music is soothing and calming, but also for the lyrics. The message is so beautiful, knowing there's someone out there who is ready to appreciate your true worth that is envelopped in your very self-being. Taking you for who you are, for what you're worth.
