Silver And Gold - Andreas Kümmert

to begin a new life

you got to break up the old one

and get back in line

it could be that you’re down

and gone for the moment

even when you’re feeling just fine

something just showed me the truth in that life

and gave me a reason to live

it takes me back to when i nearly went blind

and keeps my heart straight moving on

life has diamonds and pearls

but for sure not in this world

life has silver and gold

you gotta catch it before you grow old

to collect memories

just like words on a bookshelf

and let them all grow

some of them sure got me tossing and turning

beside my bed the nightlight glows

something just showed me the faith in that night

and gave me a reason to live

it brings shimmering

into the darkness of my mind

and keeps my heart straight moving on

life has diamonds and pearls

but for sure not in this world

life has silver and gold

you gotta catch it before you grow old

something just showed me

that truth in that life

and gave me a reason to live

it takes me back to when i nearly went blind

and keeps my heart straight moving on

life has diamonds and pearls

but for sure not in this world

life has silver and gold

you gotta catch it before you grow old
