[00:06.87] Oh, the night is growing colder,
[00:10.77] And the stars have lost their shine.
[00:15.98] And I have been forsaken,
[00:20.11] By everything I thought was mine.
[00:25.39] For in the darkest hour,
[00:29.45] When the final story's told,
[00:34.40] No matter how bright I glittered, baby,
[00:39.90] I could never be gold.
[00:46.11] You gave up your finest treasure,
[00:51.19] For the one you saw in me.
[00:53.31]
[00:55.13] But how could I know the measure,
[00:58.50]
[00:59.50] Of all you needed me to be.
[01:02.37]
[01:04.75] Though I came with sweet intentions,
[01:09.82] More my pockets could not hold.
[01:14.63] No matter how bright I glittered, baby,
[01:20.50] I could never be gold.
[01:23.69]
[01:26.38] I finally gave up counting,
[01:30.25] The ways you said I let you down.
[01:35.38] When I fell into that river of no return,
[01:41.32] And you watched me drown.
[01:47.25] Oh I could sparkle like a diamond,
[01:52.69] Have silver line my soul.
[01:56.51] But no matter how I glittered, baby,
[02:02.50] I could never be gold.
[02:08.00]
[02:29.94] You looked so high and low for heaven,
[02:34.51] I tried so hard to show the way.
[02:38.63] But though I flew on wings of angels,
[02:42.82] My feet were always made of clay.
[02:46.44]
[02:50.13] I could come trailing clouds of glory,
[02:54.82] But you saw nothing to behold.
[03:00.82] No matter how bright I glittered, baby
[03:06.01] I could never be gold.
[03:10.26]
[03:11.94] No matter how bright I glittered, baby,
[03:16.88]
[03:17.44] I could never be gold.
