lyrics

JUST LIKE GOLD – words and music by Noëlle Hampton

It’s pretty clear, by now I know you’re not a friend
You launch ahead, you leave your dust for everyone
But there’s no race and there’s no ribbon to be won
Just a pretty face, alone again without anyone

For what you put me through
Well I can forgive but you can’t undo

It’s times like this I count my blessings
For what’s real and true
And I wish somehow I could take back the love I gave to you
‘Cause it’s just like gold
In proper hands it can buy everything
But you spent it fast like cold hard cash
Now you have nothing

For what you put me through
Well I can forgive but you can’t undo

So what’s so hard, what could be so hard about trusting?
This ain’t no game
If you play your Queen I won’t play my King
I’m not here to trump you
I was only trying to be like golden wings
To an injured bird lying on the ground
With a song to sing

For what you put me through
Well I may forgive but you can’t undo
For what you put me through
Ooooh I, I, I can forgive but you can’t undo
Ooooh I, I, I can forgive but you can’t undo
Ooooh I, I, I can forgive but you can’t undo
