Searched for the Silver Lining

I've searched for the silver lining,
I've hoped that the adage is true
But I can't find the sun shining,
and I can't find the sky blue

I've been in darkness
since you've been away
I'll be in darkness
as long as you stay

Won't you bring back the sunshine
that shone on us two
Won't you color the gray skies
a heavenly blue

Throw in some stars
that sparkle so bright
And show me that the moon
can still shine at night

I'll be so happy when
you walk through the door
And we live, laugh and love
just as we did before

So honey please be kind,
and just make up your mind
That you'll hurry home
... to me...
