[verse one]

(Boy)

Please don't be offended if I preach to you awhile,

Tears are out of place in eyes that were meant to smile.

There's a way to make your very biggest troubles small,

Here's the happy secret of it all.

Refrain

Look for the silver lining

When e'er a cloud appears in the blue.

Remember some where the sun is shining,

And so the right thing to do,

Is make it shine for you.

A heart, full of joy and gladness,

Will always banish sadness and strife.

So always look for the silver lining,

And try to find the sunny side of life.

verse two

[Girl]

As I wash my dishes, I'll be following your plan,

Till I see the brightness in ev'ry pot and pan.

I am sure your point of view will ease the daily grind,

So I keep repeating in my mind.
