I have a destiny, I have a vision, dear
It's as translucent as rain and glass are clear
I am a problem girl, I have a habit old
If I got silver, I'd pine for shiny gold

And you're no better, wishing on all
Stars for things you know you shouldn't have at all
I have a complaint now, I have to change somehow
We need a turn around because I believe that

If you and I had flowers at our feet
We'd just think they will fade some day
And I know if me and you looked at skies of blue
We'd say the rain won't stay away

Tell me why it's so hard to see the silver lining
Of the clouds that tumble by
Tell me why it's so hard for us to see the bright
Side of the hidden moon, a hidden silent moon

I have a secret blue, I heard a rumour true
I have a wish and it has got to do with you
I see a picture drawn, it's lines are free and strong
I've been living on the darker side of dawn

And you the sweet one, turnin' sour as the sun sets
In your smile, something dark and shy
I have a solid trust, I have a hope for us
We're both smilin' as the factory's churnin'

But if you and I had flowers at our feet
We'd just think they will fade some day
And I think if me and you looked at skies of blue
We'd say the rain won't stay away

Tell me why it's so hard to see the silver lining
Of the clouds that tumble by
Tell me why it's so hard for us to see the bright
Side of the hidden moon, a hidden silent moon

I want to drink champagne and dance in
A fountain splashing on us with rain
I want to fall back into grass that's cool and long
While trees above us sway, we both deserve a lazy day

So hard, the stars have a secret plan for me and you
So hard, so hard, the day is done, the moon is me

Tell me why if you and I had flowers at our feet
We'd just think they will fade some day
And I know if me and you gon' looked at skies of blue
We'd say the rain won't stay away

Tell me why it's so hard to see the silver lining
Of the clouds that tumble by
Tell me why it's so hard for us to see the bright
Side of the hidden moon, a hidden silent moon

So hard, so hard, so hard
