Silver and Gold

Silver and Gold

There’s a picture that is sitting on the shelf within my soul

Of a beautiful lady, silver hair and heart of gold

And her smile is like the sunshine on an early summer’s morn

And her heart is like the garden where the purest rose is born

The flowers and the music are the reasons that she lives

She finds life within the simple things that only life can give

She always takes the time to smell the roses when she passes

Cause she knows she’s making memories, the only ones that last

Silver hair and heart of gold on the picture of my soul

Time is new but love is old though the story is seldom told

There will always be a place where time cannot erase

The love and laughter that we hold

Silver and Gold

Just like the ocean the time we spend it comes and goes

So when I go home I stop by to see her heart of gold

And we talk about the good old times and we always laugh awhile

Just remembering the times we danced I begin to gently smile

Then suddenly I realize that the memories that I hold

Come from a beautiful lady

Silver hair and heart of gold
