Lee DeWyze - Silver Lining Lyrics






Remember when I met you on a park bench
And you smiled at me and said that we should be friends
Cause I was drowning bad up on the dry land
And then sat beside and put your hand in my hand
And then you picked me up and you put me in a straight line
You looked at me and said that it would be fine
We take our time to find the silver lining
We can make these crying waters into wine
We’ll be alright
We’ll be alright

Remember when you found me on the cold ground
You were looking up as the sky was looking down
And you said that you were jealous of the bright stars
I said darling, you’ll be brighter than they all are
So then I picked you up and I put you in a straight line
You looked at me and I said that it would be fine
Take our time to find the silver lining
We can make these crying waters into wine
We’ll be alright
We’ll be alright

Cause they, they don’t know our heart
And they wont break us apart
And we, we don’t have so much
But we, all we need is us

If we take our time to find the silver lining
We can make these crying waters into wine
We’ll be alright
Cause they, they don’t know our hearts
And they won’t break us apart
And we, we don’t have so much
But we, all we need is us

If we take our time to find the silver lining

  1. M.... M....

    I can listen to most, if not all of your songs and define many parts of my life...dangerously on edge,out of my realm, not comfortable but wanting so much that is almost immediate to my touch....I love the depths of your voice, the raspy low sexy strain that i dont hear often enough...my knees get weak when i hear you sing....

  2. J.... L....

    pretty.sounds little like creed.

  3. W.... O....

    This just popped up in my facebook memories. Such a great song!

  4. K.... P....

    Watched you win on American Idol - voted for you. You have the best voice! Just love it! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

  5. K.... ....

    beautiful... :')

  6. L.... E....

    Sir Lee Dewyze, your voice is just amazing! I don't know why you are not in the lime light but you deserve it!

    L.... E....

    logan einsfield.yes

  7. F.... J....

    So much better than the studio version

    F.... J....

    Agreed. It feels more real this way.

  8. �.... �....

    Super!!!

  9. �.... �....

    I love you!thank you !

  10. K.... W....

    This is my kind of song!

  11. j.... h....

    Love the passion of this song!!!

  12. O.... R....

    He's confusing the crap out of me with his chords, it's in a different key every time he plays it! Anyone better than me at this care to give me chords? :)

  13. L.... ....

    His voice is just magical

  14. K.... M....

    <3 love it 

  15. d.... ....

    I love Silver Lining. Lee has such an awesome style and is a great artist/songwriter. His new album Frames is awesome. It's my fav. i hope everyone checks it out!!! it's 13 tracks of awesome.

  16. V.... B....

    Beautiful :) thank you for making this music

    V.... B....

    love it hi from ireland

  17. B.... C....

    :O  OMG!!! I can't belive I didn't hear this before!!!!

    B.... C....

    I know right! Popular music should be more like this!

  18. B.... D....

    You're everything Lee DeWyze.

  19. L.... ....

    It had crossed my mind that if this was his immediate release after Idol he'd be doing A LOT better; it's an amazing cd gaining not much recognition but that is why they say these two things:
    1. You can never make a second first impression.
    and
    2. Timing is everything.

  20. c.... ....

    Beautiful song from an amazing artist......fan forever!

  21. R.... L....

    Is this the song of The silver linings playbook????

  22. 7.... ....

    He co wrote it with a guy who made Home for Phillip Phillips.

  23. a.... z....

    he is so good..he write his own song right?

  24. l.... p....

    get this released in Ireland my friend chart topper guaranteed

  25. G.... S....

    Lee, you are great, as an artist, a writer, a musician and a man. I will always love you.

  26. N.... L....

    I like this version better because you can hear more of his vocals and there's less music

  27. L.... D....

    He is amazing ! His voice gives me goosebumps

  28. B.... ....

    He keeps sounding better.

  29. R.... L....

    Bought it out of respect. But this version is what i like. The hardcore vocal is what sets him apart. Cant hear it in official release.

  30. L.... ....

    Remember when I met you on a park bench? And you smiled at me and said that we should be friends… cuz I was drowning there up on the dry land, until you sat beside and put your hand in my hand. And then you picked me up and you put me in a straight line. You looked at me and said that it would be fine… If we take our time to find the silver lining, we can make these crying waters, crying waters into wine. And we’ll be all right. And we’ll be all right.

  31. L.... ....

    Remember when I found you on the cold ground? And you were looking up as the sky was looking down. And you said that you were jealous of the bright stars. I said darling, you’ll be brighter than they all are. And then I picked you up and I put you in a straight line. I looked at you and said that it would be fine. If we take our time to find the silver lining, we can make these crying waters into wine. And we’ll be all right. And we’ll be all right.

  32. L.... ....

    Oh, now, they, they don’t know our hearts and they won’t break us apart cuz we, we don’t have so much but we, all we need is us! If we take the time to find the silver lining, we can make these crying waters, crying waters into wine. And we’ll be all right. And we’ll be all right. Yeah… Cuz they, they don’t know our hearts and they won’t break us apart cuz we, we don’t have so much but we, all we need is us! If we take the time to find the silver lining…

  33. L.... ....

    I think this song and the emotion that Lee puts into it is incredible..great job, Lee..looking forward to purchasing your cd in August

  34. C.... R....

    i dig this shit!!!! yeah baby

  35. 9.... ....

    Lee's CD coming out 8/20/13 is now available to pre-order on Amazon and iTunes!

  36. C.... H....

    M&M? Are you meaning Eminem?

  37. A.... C....

    SimpLEE magnfico

  38. A.... E....

    Love your voice!

  39. A.... C....

    Yipppplllleeeeeee keep kickin ass lee!!!!! Keep takin names dude!!!!!

  40. K.... S....

    Love this!

  41. j.... a....

    i dont like it..i love it :))...raping the replay :p

  42. D.... C....

    wow what a beautiful voice and song, cant stop playing it, cant wait to buy his cd,, love it love it...

  43. c.... ....

    He doesn't seem anything like Phillip, he and Philli have two different sounds. I can't see how anyone can say they sound the same because they don't.

  44. J.... D....

    Needs more views <3

  45. b.... ....

    I don't think he's copying anybody, he's just being influenced by what's happening in music right now. In pop everybody used dubstep that past 3 years, in AC everybody is using this bluegrass sound. It's a great song :)

  46. L.... ....

    very catchy love it

  47. L.... ....

    Good point and I love Lee's new music!

  48. J.... T....

    Phillip Phillips did not write HOME so how can he be said to copy Phillip Phillips???! Lee is Lee! Bravo and I think he is finally doing the music HE wants to do!

  49. A.... C....

    UnbeLEEvable!!!! Love this guy and his music sooooo much!

  50. C.... A....

    I love this song. I would tell you how many times I've listened to it, but my iTunes lost count.

  51. A.... C....

    OH MY freakin Lord he is so awesome!!!!!

  52. H.... A....

    Lee- You found your niche!!! Please keep in this genre!!! Please!!!

  53. I.... H....

    LOVE LOVE LOVE this song!!!!

  54. l.... ....

    fucking awesome ! ^_^

  55. T.... S....

    why cant people be happy there are other people playing a amazing style of music

  56. P.... A....

    His voice is golden.

  57. S.... H....

    His voice is just so amazing. It literally makes my soul happy.

  58. K.... G....

    I have been a HUGE fan of Lee's for 4 years before ppl even knew who he was and I can assure you that this song IS his style! M&S are a great band but Lee has never wavered in his style just to "sell what is popular"! He won american idol and left the mainstream to do what he wanted insteaded of conforming! Do your stinking research before you post. You sound ignorant! Lee, it is AMAZING! LOVE IT!!!!!! MUAH!!!

  59. L.... D....

    never really watched american idol, but I came across this song on the alternative charts a while back and I love it! I will definitely check out his album. I am a M&M fan as well as he sounds similar but also distinctly different. I love his sound.

  60. L.... ....

    What song are people saying Lee copied? I have heard Home and do not agree; this is not a copy of Phillip Phillips Home.

  61. L.... ....

    TYPO I MEANT IDOL NOT ARTIST..ANYWAY GREAT JOB LEE ..LOVE THIS SONG, CAN'T GET IT OUTTA MY BRAIN

  62. L.... ....

    Let me give you some history; I was devastated when Crystal lost artist and I still think she is a remarkable artist. But while I put Lee down endlessly back then I WANT TO SAY THIS SONG IS BEAUTIFUL..GREAT JOB LEE I WILL BE PURCHASING YOUR FULL CD IN JUNE AND IF THIS SONG IS IN ANY REFLECTIVE OF THE ENTIRE CD I AM SURE IT WILL BE EXCELLENT..THIS IS VERY SOULFUL AND VERY CATCHY! LEE'S VOCALS ARE GREAT HERE!

  63. C.... C....

    I couldn't agree more!

  64. J.... S....

    It looks very similar to a Rode K2, but looks like a Neumann shock mount and the bracing for the grill is different. Would love to find out though.

  65. J.... D....

    Wait.....You didn't know that Mumford and Sons invented the banjo?

  66. J.... 2....

    I like this version better than the actual downloadable single version.

  67. L.... ....

    I really really really REALLY like this acoustic version! - maybe Lee will release it as a bonus song for his new album!!!

  68. m.... c....

    I can hear Lee's heart singing! beautiful :)

  69. L.... ....

    wow M&S really remind me of Lee DeWyze. <3

  70. C.... D....

    Reminds me of Mumford and Sons !

  71. C.... D....

    Love him since the day he auditioned, best song he's ever written (:

  72. v.... d....

    beautiful song!..hope this song would make him popular!!

  73. c.... ....

    i didnt watch american idol. i came across this song (silver lining)
    on youtube. i instantly loved it. currently my favorite song. hope you make more songs like this.

  74. C.... T....

    I've been waiting for this Lee DeWyze release!! I love it!! Lee DeWyze writes beautifully, I've been listening for years and he's still my favorite. More, more, more!!!

  75. h.... J....

    I love It !!! Lee was singing was singing stuff like this way before Mumford and Sons and I am so glad he finally has his album out !!! Its Great !!! No doubt Phil Phillips is one of a kind but Lee is pretty dang close !!!

  76. D.... O....

    Great song! So glad to see you put out some good music! Well deserved & I'm glad I get to listen to it! Thanks!

  77. k.... ....

    Got this song stuck in my head.

  78. i.... ....

    what?!?!?! you are saying that MUMFORD AND SONS made FOLK ROCK popular? HÁ! LOL. ok, then. how old are you? get your facts straight and then (and ONLY THEN) come comment here, k?

  79. M.... ....

    that would be sick and just for fun put casey abrams in there to lol

  80. M.... ....

    sounds irish in this love lees voice since season 9

  81. R.... B....

    MUMFORD AND SONS ARE ONE THINK BUT LEE DEWYZE ITS ANOTHER DIFERENT THINK ANOTHER DIFERENT WAY TO SING,,, CONCLUSION THE MAN ROCKS

  82. r.... ....

    All of you need to look into a group called Big Sky....they were around with Sister Hazel in Gainesville, but never got as big. They were around before all of these new great musicians.

  83. V.... ....

    This genre was around before Mumford & Sons. Just because one band sings a certain genre doesn't mean no one else can.

  84. M.... W....

    Love love love this Lee!

  85. D.... G....

    Love the sound of these vocals. Does anyone know the mic used on vox here? Definitely a LDC, U47 ish...

  86. J.... R....

    Love this song!!

  87. r.... b....

    i like it, seems like the home of philip phillips

  88. P.... A....

    Will be alright.... I'm gonna make this place your home..

  89. O.... ....

    I LOVE the rusty, husky, growling in his voice. This song is like crack....totally addictive. I just bloody love it!

  90. y.... ....

    Really digging this. Might have to download.

  91. B.... M....

    awesome song

  92. m.... ....

    So. Damn. Good.

  93. g.... a....

    i always envy people who always see the silver lining in any situation.... love lee

  94. A.... S....

    Wow he completely changed his style from "Live It Up"!! Love it!!

  95. K.... _....

    You guys... Lee is not a "rip off" of anyone. He has been making songs like this since BEFORE IDOL. This song might sound somewhat similar to Home because it was produced by Drew Pearson, who is the same guy who wrote Home for Phillip Phillips. This is the kind of artist Lee is and always has been.

  96. S.... M....

    Both Philip Philips and Lee both sound like rip offs of Mumford and sons.

  97. L.... M....

    Hey Guys Let's Support Lee for his new album Silver Lining. This maybe his time to prove that he really deserve to be on top. And maybe this is time of paying back our owe to him after so many years of inspiring us. And if you guys could only hear you will really feel the passion Lee has given to this song. :)
