Silver
RKDN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Silver stars beating hard
I've been waiting all night
Hollywood boulevard
Feed the fire, fend the flames
Watch the night turn into the day
Silver and gold in my arms
Take my hand and never let it, never let it go
Oh oh ooh ooh ooh
Take my hand and never let it, never let it go
Though I knew the first time
City walls, somewhere to fall
It feels just like the first time
Silver stars with the beat of my heart
Feed the fire, fend the flames
Watch the night turn into the day
Silver and gold in my arms
Oh oh ooh ooh ooh
Take my hand and never let it, never let it go
Oh oh ooh ooh ooh
Take my hand and never let it, never let it go
We both know we're human,
Truth is we don't ever let it show, no
Oh oh ooh ooh ooh
Take my hand and never let it, never let it go
Silver and gold in my arms
I've got silver and gold in my hands
Oh oh ooh ooh ooh
Oh oh ooh ooh ooh
Take my hand and never let it, never let it go
Oh oh ooh ooh ooh
Take my hand and never let it, never let it go
Oh oh ooh ooh ooh
Take my hand and never let it, never let it go
We both know we're human,
Truth is we don't ever let it show, no
Take my hand and never let it, never let it go
