Lyrics

Honey...

I used to think time was taking things away from me.

The silver in my hair.

The lines on my face.

The roads I had to leave behind.

But then I learned something...

Time wasn't taking my light.

It was leaving gold behind.

Still gold...

Still gold...

I remember the girl I used to be

Running barefoot underneath the summer trees

A heart full of wishes, a pocket full of dreams

Chasing little moments that meant everything

I loved, I lost, I learned to let go

I watched some rivers change their flow

But every goodbye, every road I walked

Built the woman standing here I know

I don't need yesterday back

I don't need another chance

I like the way my story looks

Written in these hands

I'm still gold, honey

Still shining underneath

Silver in my hair

But there's fire in my dreams

I'm still gold, darling

The years just made me shine

Every scar became a story

Every season became mine

I don't need to be younger

I don't need to rewind

I am the woman that I became

And I love this life of mine

Still gold...

Honey, I'm still gold...

I wore black for the moments

That taught my heart to grow

I carried storms on my shoulders

Through places nobody knows

But underneath the darkness

Underneath the stone

There was a little river of fire

That was always my own

Now I wear the colors

Hidden deep inside

The red of my courage

The blue of my open sky

The gold of every morning

The light I found along the way

The flame that kept on burning

When everything changed

To every woman listening

Who thinks her best days passed

Honey, look in the mirror

You are made of all you've lasted through

Those lines are not a goodbye

Those years are not a loss

They are the beautiful evidence

Of everything you crossed

I'm still gold, honey

Still shining underneath

The world can see my silver

But they don't know all my heat

I'm still gold, darling

Still dancing with the wind

Still opening new doors

Still beginning again

The years didn't steal my light

They taught me how to glow

Every road, every tear, every love

Made me who I am today

And now I know...

I was never fading away

I was becoming gold

Still gold...

Still here...

Still shining...
