The windows in New York City All dressed up with ribbons and smiles Snow covers the park like a carpet Bells on white carriages roll by in style St. Patrick's Cathedral is all lit up When the doors open wide, I can see All of those candles burning inside Looks like somebody's birthday party to me Snowy night, catch the light Shimmer bright, angels sing Here below, children know Faces glow, bells they ring Through a city of silver dreams They hung a star over 5th Avenue Like a beacon that's calling you home With our gifts we come looking for comfort May we find in each other, we're not so alone Snowy night, catch the light Shinning bright, angels sing Here below, children know Faces glow, bells they ring Through a city of silver dreams It's like this whole town has swallowed some magic With a taxi horns singing away They say that this city will change you But it ain't me that's been changing From what I can tell Snowy night, catch the light Shinning bright, angels sing Here below, children know Faces glow, bells they ring Through a city, through a city so pretty In this city of silver dreams

Waking up alone inside your head While bleeding out the words I never said I sleep alone lying next to you With so much to say but nothing new Turn to me, tell me what you need (Even if it's me to pack up all my stuff and leave) Whisper with words still laced in blood (Let the silence be the comfort that I never was) Darling Why so sad? Darling Could it be you have your doubts? Silence seems to be The only thing that we can talk about So tell me, what is your silver lining? Tracing all these steps I never took While reading every line inside your book All the empty pages that you wrote Were signing off with all our favorite quotes Tell me how to be what you need (Since I know my neglicence sometimes can be obscene) Whisper with words stuck in the past (Let the silence be the comfort that we'll make it last) Darling Please don't cry Darling Could it be? We'll make it out Distance seems to be The only thing that we can talk about So tell me, what is your silver lining? Tell me everything will be alright (alright) And the lie through your smile shining bright (shining bright) You dance like you want me in your life (your life) Then why write your letters with a knife? Darling Am I sad? Darling Could it be that I have my doubts? Since you seem to be The only thing that I prioritize So tell me, what is my silver lining?

By day I'm a workin' man, Layin' bricks or layin' pipe. I don't stand out in a crowd Just look like one of the guys. Little do they know, When I'm alone in bed at night, I become the King of the Silver Screen. I stare at the ceiling there; I know where I belong. I two step with Fred Astaire or Fighting old King Kong. I can be any hero at all; Zorro or Don Juan. I know I'm the King of the Silver Screen. Hollywood movies keep flashin' across my mind. I could've been Valentino if I was born in another time. I might be solving a case or swinging from a tree. Share a joke with Crosby and Hope We're such good friends, you see. Even dazzle the Academy with my versatility. 'Cause I'm the King of the Silver Screen. Hollywood movies keep flashin' across my mind. I could've been Errol Flynn If I was born in another time. I could've been a star. I could've been a star. I could've played that part. But Hollywood movies keep flashin' before my eyes. I could've been Greta Garbo If I was born in another time. I wake the very next day Go on back to work. I'm just a face in a crowd Another average jerk. And all the guys on the building site look at me flirt. Because I'm the Queen of the Silver. Yes, I'm the Queen of the Silver Screen. I admit it to all my fellow workers. I don't care any more. I'm tired of closets. I'm gonna eat my makeup for lunch today. Just stop hittin' me again. All right guys? I'm going to Hollywood to be a starlet. I know I'm 240 pounds and play center For the Detroit Lions. I don't care any more. I like makeup and dresses and Hollywood. I'll make somebody a great little wife. "Frankly, Scarlet, I don't give a damn."
