Story Behind The Song

I wrote this song after a close friend lost her mother and that is where my first verse came from...and then onto the second there was a collection of thoughts from where I was in the army and how my buddies are fighting in the war...also when you at the crossroads to make a choice to take a risk and go for it all or play it safe...what are you going to do? Go for it on 4th and 26th and make it happen...do not give up on your dreams.

Song Description

No matter what you going through, keep the faith that things will get better and you will have your sunshine on that cloudy day.

Lyrics

Verse 1:
Many questions running through my mind
I wonder when I pass if you?ll laugh at memories left behind
I got sunshine on a cloudy day with the lemons and the rain
I?m making lemonade, hey!
I got no choice but to maintain through the pain, cry myself to sleep/
Dear God / will you keep ME,
From despair, it?s not fair, / but who cares?
God you said you never give me more than I can bear. I wish
To turn back / the hands . . . on the clock
It?d be / the only way this pain could ever stop
Words left unspoken, moments not shared
Empty inside without your presence, thought you?d always be there
Now you gone / and I gotta live on
But one day, I know together / we will rejoin
In the meantime I am going to live my life to make you smile
Smile on me cuz I know you love your child.

Hook:
Bring me sunshine on a cloudy day, just to let me know its gonna be ok. Sunshine on a cloudy day, just to let me know its gonna be ok. Sunshine on a cloudy day, just to let me know its gonna be ok.
Sunshine, Sunshine, Sunshine.

Verse 2:
I pray for every soldier that is at war.
Give them inner peace at the very least Lord.
But we got our own battle right here in the USA
In the middle of the day / Guns spray
My heart goes out, to slug out, every bout
Driving toward self destruction if we don?t change the route
It?s not right / but we continue to do it
Swinging against two strikes, / we can pull through it
Its 4th and 26, and we need to advance
Time is not on our side / let take a chance
We gone make it, ya better believe
The power is unparallel when 2 or 3 agree
Always remember that / anything is possible
Never give up on your dreams even when uncomfortable
Keep pressing on through your dark times
As long as you breathe there is hope for sunshine

Hook:
Bring me sunshine on a cloudy day, just to let me know its gonna be ok. Sunshine on a cloudy day, just to let me know its gonna be ok. Sunshine on a cloudy day, just to let me know its gonna be ok.
Sunshine, Sunshine, Sunshine. (x fade)
