| Said one cloud to the next,
|
| How nice that we can rain
|
| On the ground it seems they let
|
| Water wash away their pain
|
| So, don’t fade out
|
| I will lend you my silver lining
|
| I do not need to dress this proud
|
| Said the daughter to her mother,
|
| There are days when I go nowhere
|
| But I know how I got here
|
| Thanks for cheering for me all these years
|
| And don’t fade out
|
| I will lend you my silver lining
|
| I do not need to dress this proud
|
| And I would like to lay my riches down, down
|
| I would like to lay my riches down, down
|
| Said the smile to the tear,
|
| You’re the reason I am here
|
| You know it’s not every day
|
| That I have the chance to mean it When I say
|
| Don’t, don’t fade out
|
| I know I will lend you my silver lining
|
| I do not need to dress this proud
|
| And I would like to lay my riches down, down
|
| I would like to lay my riches down, down
|
| I would like to lay my riches down, down
|
| Down |
