Gold lyrics

He don't know I call him the teacher

He had hard lessons for the kid

I could offer you true helly put me under the same spell

He lied and he stressed me out

You love me like a precious gift

And he loved me like a sloppy kiss

You would tell me your heart aches,

now I understand the pain

Oh why did I let you drown

Baby, what you believe that I been broken

You say memories again and again

I see the real and it's real to me

I gave up gold for grains of sand

Slipin' through my hand, hand, hand, hands

Slipin' through my hand, hand, hand, hands

You had no problems with commitment

Like a king is loyal to honesties

You look for a ring to fit,

while I played wify with the kids

Oh the irony makes me sick

He tried to make me look crazy

Nothing new about his kind of scheme

I laugh when I think about his face

when the truth now is spilled out

He looked like me I get that now

But Baby, what you believe that I been broken

You say memories again and again

I see the real and it's real to me

I gave up gold for grains of sand

Slipin' through my hand, hand, hand, hands

Slipin' through my hand, hand, hand, hands

Slipin' through my hand, hand, hand, hands

Slipin' through my hand, hand, hand, hands

Ah, ah, ah, ah

But Baby, what you believe that I been broken

You say memories again and again

I see the real and it's real to me

I gave up gold for grains of sand

Slipin' through my hand, hand, hand, hands

Slipin' through my hand, hand, hand, hands

Slipin' through my hand, hand, hand, hands

Slipin' through my hand, hand, hand, hands...
