silver and gold lyrics

She knows what's been keepin' him out too late
She never was the kind to sit around and wait
She loosened the locket he gave her
She took off her wedding band
When he gets home he'll find, all she's left behind

Silver and gold, haven't they lost their shine
Tonight she let go for the last time
Just silver and gold, ties that no longer bind her
Now he's left alone with silver and gold

He could've kept her love so easily
It wasn't like she didn't try to make him see
Once she made up her mind, there was no turnin' back
He's gonna understand and all he's holdin' in his hands

Silver and gold, haven't they lost their shine
Tonight she let go for the last time
Just silver and gold, ties that no longer bind her
Now he's left alone with silver and gold

And what once was sacred, only yesterday
They don't mean a thing as she walks away

Silver and gold, haven't they lost their shine
Tonight she let go for the last time
Just silver and gold, ties that no longer bind her
Now he's left alone, she's put it all behind her

Silver and gold, haven't they lost their shine
Tonight she let go for the last time
Just silver and gold, ties that no longer bind her
