I've been down on my luck,
|
I've been shadowed with trouble and sorrow.
|
But I ain't givin' up'
|
'Cause I know there is always tomorrow.
|
|
There are no guarantees,
|
Life is always a hit or miss.
|
But I truly believe
|
I won't always be feeling' like this.
|
|
I'm gonna shine like the sun
|
When these clouds roll away from my door.
|
When it's all said and done
|
I won't be at your mercy no more.
|
|
I will prove my own worth,
|
Heal the damage and hurt that's been done.
|
And when the cryin's all done.
|
Well, I'm gonna shine like the sun.
|
|
I've been thinking here lately
|
What all I can do to improve.
|
Though I've suffered greatly,
|
I know just what I have to do.
|
|
I have to move forward,
|
Cut losses, break loose and move on.
|
And I have to swim shoreward
|
Lest I should drown out here alone.
|
|
I'm gonna shine like the sun
|
When these clouds roll away from my door.
|
I won't crawl I can run
|
I'll be at no ones mercy no more.
|
|
I'll be swinging on sunbeams
|
So proud that I finally won.
|
And when the losin's all done.
|
Well, I'm gonna shine like the sun.
|
|
I'm gonna shine, I'm gonna shine.
|
I'm gonna shine like the sun.
|
When these clouds roll away from my door.
|
And when it's all said and done
|
I won't be at your mercy no more.
|
|
I'll be off chasin' rainbows,
|
Rejoicin' and havin' my fun.
|
And when the cryin's all done,
|
Well, I'm gonna shine like the sun.
|
|
When the cryin's all done,
|
When the tryin's all done,
|
When the lyin's all done
|
There'll be nothin' but sun.
|
|
When it's all said and done
|
Well, I'm gonna shine like the sun.
|
Shine like the sun, shine like the sun.
|
