Like Gold & Silver
Gold is treasured, priced, and pursued.
Silver is quiet, regal, in the background.
Gold is a trophy, the winner's crown
Silver comes second, a consolation prize
Gold is warm
Silver is cold, they say
Gold adorns
Silver pretends
Gold is glory
Silver is another story
Golden boys are everyone's joy
Who has ever heard of a Silver boy?
Don't think you have
I haven't either
Gold is the sun
Silver the moon
Which is more beautiful?
Who could ever say?
Some people are gold, bright and loved
Some are born silver, destined to fade
Gold never needs to be polished, it has light of its own
Yes, silver fades, but it is what thief always takes
