Lyrics:

Oh, The Night Is Growing Colder,
and The Stars Have Lost Their Shine.
and I Have Been Forsaken,
by Everything I Thought Was Mine.
for In The Darkest Hour,
when The Final Storys Told,
no Matter How Bright I Glittered, Baby,
i Could Never Be Gold.

you Gave Up Your Finest Treasure,
for The One You Saw In Me.
but How Could I Know The Measure,
of All You Needed Me To Be.
though I Came With Sweet Intentions,
more My Pockets Could Not Hold.
no Matter How Bright I Glittered, Baby,
i Could Never Be Gold.

i Finally Gave Up Counting,
the Ways You Said I Let You Down.
when I Fell Into That River Of No Return,
and You Watched Me Drown.
oh I Could Sparkle Like A Diamond,
have Silver Line My Soul.
but No Matter How I Glittered, Baby,
i Could Never Be Gold.

you Looked So High And Low For Heaven,
i Tried So Hard To Show The Way.
but Though I Flew On Wings Of Angels,
my Feet Were Always Made Of Clay.
i Could Come Trailing Clouds Of Glory,
but You Saw Nothing To Behold.
no Matter How Bright I Glittered, Baby
i Could Never Be Gold.

no Matter How Bright I Glittered, Baby,
i Could Never Be Gold.
