Brooks & Dunn - Silver And Gold Lyrics

She knows what's been keeping him out too late
She never was the kind to sit around and wait
She loosened the locket he gave her,
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
Silver and gold ties that no longer bind her
Now he's left alone, silver and gold

He could have 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 turning back
He's gonna understand that all he's holding in his hand

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

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

--- Instrumental ---

Silver and gold haven't they lost their shine
Tonight she let go for the last time
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...
