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 herTook off her wedding band

When he gets home, he′ll find

All she's left behind

Is 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

Could′ve kept her love so easily

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

All he's holdin′ in his hands

Is 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

Just 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

Just silver and gold, haven't they lost their shine?

Tonight she let go for the last time

Just silver and gold,...
