[ti:Gold] [ar:Emmylou Harris] [al:All I Intended To Be] [00:01.10]Emmylou Harris - Gold [00:04.45] [00:05.88]Oh, the night is growing colder, [00:10.37]And the stars have lost their shine. [00:15.21]And I have been forsaken, [00:19.32]By everything I thought was mine. [00:24.36]For in the darkest hour, [00:29.22]When the final story's told, [00:34.14]No matter how bright I glittered, baby, [00:39.81]I could never be gold. [00:43.75] [00:45.55]You gave up your finest treasure, [00:50.41]For the one you saw in me. [00:54.87]But how could I know the measure, [00:59.30]Of all you needed me to be. [01:04.49]Though I came with sweet intentions, [01:08.89]More my pockets could not hold. [01:14.23]No matter how bright I glittered, baby, [01:19.84]I could never be gold. [01:23.28] [01:25.78]I finally gave up counting, [01:29.86]The ways you said I let you down. [01:35.04]When I fell into that river of no return, [01:41.29]And you watched me drown. [01:46.39]Oh I could sparkle like a diamond, [01:51.56]Have silver line my soul. [01:56.36]But no matter how I glittered, baby, [02:02.10]I could never be gold. [02:05.85] [02:28.70]You looked so high and low for heaven, [02:33.34]I tried so hard to show the way. [02:38.09]But though I flew on wings of angels, [02:42.47]My feet were always made of clay. [02:49.83]I could come trailing clouds of glory, [02:54.50]But you saw nothing to behold. [03:00.16]No matter how bright I glittered, baby [03:05.65]I could never be gold. [03:08.91] [03:11.65]No matter how bright I glittered, baby, [03:17.39]I could never be gold. [03:29.33]
