Lyrics
The Sun Shines Down (C. Newton)
Verse
There were days I recall
Clouds of grey rain would fall
I had dreams of something new
Never seemed that they?d come true
Then I saw you reading a book
Chorus
And then the sun shines down
The curtain goes up
The world turns ?round
And I fall in love, I fall in love
Verse
It doesn?t play the way I planned
People say that in my hands
Is what I need, if my heart
Could let it be, could let it start
Then I see you swaying to the beat
Chorus
Bridge
If I could forget all that I know I don?t know and don?t even need
Get myself some new sunglasses and baby we?ll just see
Chorus
Cause now the sun shines down
