I forgot what you looked like I forgot your skin I wanted to stand up And make you a mountain. I wanted to gather, Some stars in my hand. And drop them before you, Like they were sand. 'Cus I wanted you glowing, So you could see... What I'm seeing. When I behold you, But I forgot your skin Now I'm not a rich man, But I just had to prove, So I gathered some gold dust, And I flung it on you. But you're finer than gold, You're finer than gold. You're finer than gold. 'Cus gold doesn't suit you. Not on your skin. Like a drunk in the morning, Just doesn't fit in. So happy birthday, I don't have a gift. I spent all my money, Only have this... You're finer than gold. You're finer than gold. You're finer than gold. So now I sit here, Alone in my room. Holding this necklace, And thinking of you. I just want to break it, Dig it a hole. I know you forgive me, 'Cus how could I know? You're finer than gold.
