Silverlined (Summertime's End)

Up high on a mountainside,
She softly dreams, breathing the sky,
Wondering why
She feels alive.

And every day, she thinks of me
And how things are different now,
Knowing somehow
That something's changed inside.

So breaking free, she says goodbye
Beneath a cold day in July,
And leaves the life she knew behind
To be a witness to the world,
To be a different kind of girl
And prove her clouds are only gray
Because they're silverlined.

She blows a kiss into the breeze,
And somehow, all these miles away,
Miles away,
I can feel her right beside me.

And when I hold her hand once more,
I'll remind her to stay ever the same,
Never afraid,
To make Him proud.

So breaking free, she says goodbye
Beneath a cold day in July,
And leaves the life she knew behind
To be a witness to the world,
To be a different kind of girl
And prove her clouds are only gray
Because they're silverlined.

I know someday we'll meet again
When the skyline glows the way it used to glow.
But until then, let's change this world,
And don't ever let Him go!

So breaking free, she says goodbye
Beneath a cold day in July,
And leaves the life she knew behind
To be a witness to the world,
To be a different kind of girl
And prove her clouds are only gray
Because they're silverlined.
