Silver Lining Lyrics - Silver Lining - Bonnie Raitt

Take this silver lining 

Keep it in your own 

Sweet head 

And shine it when the night is 

Burning red 

Shine it in the twilight 

Shine it on the cold, cold ground 

Shine it till these walls 

Come tumbling down 

We were born with our eyes wide open 

So alive with wild hope now 

Can you tell me why 

Time after time they drag you down 

Down in the darkest deep 

Fools and their madness all around 

Know that the light don't sleep

Step into the silence 

Take it in your own 

Two hands 

And sprinkle it like diamonds 

All across these lands 

Blaze it in the morning 

Wear it like an iron skin 

Only things worth living for are 

Innocence and magic, amen 

We were born with our eyes wide open 

So alive with wild hope now 

Can you tell me why 

Time after time they drag you down 

Down in the darkest deep 

Fools and their madness all around 

Know that the light don't sleep 

Woah, wooah

We were born with our eyes wide open 

So alive with wild hope now 

Can you tell me why 

Time after time they drag you down 

Down in the talk so cheap 

Fools and their madness all around 

Know that the light don't sleep 

Know that the light don't sleep 

Time after time 

They drag you down 

Down in the darkness deep 

Fools in their madness all around 

Know that the light don't sleep 

Know that the light don't sleep
