Silver Lining from Silver Lining by Good Guy Hank

Silver Lining



Called your number, yesterday

Once or twice or maybe more

Just like most any other day

But then I guess you know the score



Cos lately I’ve been, gettin drunk a lot

And I been feelin kinda down

Seems all I want is what I ain’t got

And all I wanna do is drown



This bit old sun, comes pouring in

Through my window on a cold cold day

I wish that I could speak some Sunshinese

Tell it just to go away



Cos the silver lining we tore apart

The one that held us close

Now hangs in rags across the ruins of my broken heart

Like some sad old lonely ghost



Oh my sweet sweet baby

Don’t ever wear these lies of mine

Just hold on to your own

You’ll do fine



I found god in a loaded gun

Sad and pretty as a settin sun

Got myself a little religion for the pain

And the shame



Now she is waiting for the long goodbye

Won’t even look me in the eye

I start shaking then I just cry again



Oh my sweet sweet baby

Don’t ever wear these lies of mine

Just hold on to your own

You’ll do fine



And I’d feel a whole lot better but I’m going home

I’d feel a whole lot better but I’m going home

Yes I would feel a whole lot better but I’m going home


Yes I would feel a whole lot better but I’m going home
