1
Oh, the night is growing colder
2
And the stars have lost their shine
3
And I have been forsaken
4
By everything I thought was mine
5
For in the darkest hour
6
When the final story's told
7
No matter how bright I glittered, baby
8
I could never be gold
9
You gave up your finest treasure
10
For the one you saw in me
11
But how could I know the measure
12
Of all you needed me to be
13
Though I came with sweet intentions
14
More my pockets could not hold
15
No matter how bright I glittered, baby
16
I could never be gold
17
I finally gave up counting
18
The ways you said I let you down
19
When I fell into that river of no return
20
And you watched me drown
21
Oh, I could sparkle like a diamond
22
Have silver line my soul
23
But no matter how I glittered, baby
24
I could never be gold
25
You looked so high and low for heaven
26
I tried so hard to show the way
27
But though I flew on wings of angels
28
My feet were always made of clay
29
I could come trailing clouds of glory
30
But you saw nothing to behold
31
No matter how bright I glittered, baby
32
I could never be gold
33
No matter how bright I glittered, baby
34
I could never be gold
Tulsa Queen, Emmylou Harris
