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)]
