See that girl with blonde hair? Life's shake wasn't quite fair Never had a choice but to grow up Momma wasn't always around Her blood father's in the ground But, she'd crawl before she used it as a crutch Silver Run, silver lining A flower growing through asphalt, yet her roots are twice as strong Never done, always climbing Been a fighter all along, she's only afraid to fall In love with me It'd take me half a tank of gas To run her around and back County roads ate my tires to the chords She cost me a lot of sleep And the way I used to be But, I'd do it all again and even more Silver Run, silver lining A flower growing through asphalt, yet her roots are twice as strong Never done, always climbing Been a fighter all along, she's only afraid to fall In love with me We left home to come here City lights expose our fears A county girl at heart, you can't deny I don't care much for the traffic Isolation is my habit Find a holler for me to raise up mine Silver Run, silver lining A flower growing through asphalt, yet her roots are twice as strong Never done, always climbing Been a fighter all along, she's only afraid to fall In love with me
