|
We leave home expecting to find a blue bird, |
|
Hoping ev'ry cloud will be silver lined. |
|
But we all return as we live wo learn, |
|
That we left our happiness behind. |
|
When they sing you \"Look for the Silver Lining,\" |
|
It is silver dollars they're looking for. |
|
You will find my friend that the rainbow's end, |
|
Is somewhere around your kitchen door. |
|
The bird with feathers of blue, is waiting for you, |
|
Back in your own back yard, |
|
You'll see your castle in Spain, through your window pane, |
|
Back in your own back yard. |
|
Oh you can go to the East go to the West, |
|
But someday you'll come weary at heart back where you started from, |
|
You'll find your happiness lies, right under your eyes, |
|
Back in your own backyard. |
