Written By Knight

|
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)
