I know I know I know I know we ain't perfect
Your the best thing I ever had but it ain't working
If there was a magic pill I knew could heal this hurt
I would drop a couple mil
Brake lights in my head, you see diamonds I see red
And you say I'm never home, but you signed up when I was gone
You tried to change me, I'm still the same me
Silver just can't be gold
We go we go we go we go round in circles
My momma said honey you shouldn't be jumping hurdles
Love ain't supposed to be this hard, the wars we start
Driving us apart
Brake lights in my head, you see diamonds and I see red
And you say I'm never home, but you signed up when I was gone
You tried to change me, I'm still the same me
Silver can't be gold
You should know better we can't be together
Silver just can't be gold
You can bring me sugar babe
We know how it's gonna taste
Even though I'll bend and break
Still don't mean I'm gonna stay
Can't convince my heart to feel
Something that ain't real
You tried to change me, I'm still the same me
You don't believe me, silver just can't be gold
Brake lights in my head, you see diamonds and I see red
And you say I'm never home, but you signed up when I was gone
You tried to change me, I'm still the same me
Silver just can't be gold
You should know better we can't be together
Silver just can't be gold
You tried to change me, I'm still the same me
Silver just can't be gold
