Silver And Gold : Lyric Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


Silver And Gold

 Paul McCann

 

All she want’s she can’t get and she can’t fix up her debt ,

and all the silver gold just weighs her down .

well she can’t find happiness in the way that she Is  dressed

and so she goes to all the parties in town ,

where she flirts with every man she meets

cause she’s looking for life on the easy streets

but she can’t see  the love she left behind .

 

She goes to the party with so much bling on her body

that she rattles every time she walks by

and all the silver and gold she knows

can’t sparkle  because her eyes are closed

to the dream of finding new and better ways .

All she owns is nothing she says ,

except the silver and gold these days

that might shine but they can never be mine .

 

If all your treasure is silver and gold

you will never be able to see ,

the beauty of who you really are ,

with a plastic identity cause its all based on silver and gold ,

but there’s no place for silver and gold .

 

Somewhere on the list she made

is something she’s missed I’m afraid

that’s been covered in her silver and gold .

Oh how precious it is when you know that youre his

and real  love cant be bought or sold .

for what you hold in your heart  can never depart

and I know in time these things will be mine    .

 

If all your treasure is silver and gold

you will never be able to see ,

the beauty of who you really are ,

with a plastic identity cause its all based on silver and gold ,

but there’s no place for silver and gold .

 

Every piece of silver and every ounce of gold

could never save the love in your soul  .’

So you better make sure what you’ve have will endure

before you put everything on the line .

For it’s a long long time that I want you to be mine

and the treasure of our love it will shine  .

 

 

If all your treasure is silver and gold

you will never be able to see ,

the beauty of who you really are ,

with a plastic identity cause its all based on silver and gold ,

but there’s no place for silver and gold
