Lyrics
Well, the sun shined on me today
Just for a minute before the clouds came closing in
It's been ten days without it
And I was starting to doubt it
Would ever show its face again
To some people it might not mean much
But all the songs I write sound like grunge
I've been thinking I must have traveled
Moved out to Seattle
During one of those moments when I was out of touch
And I know I'm gonna be all right
She's there above the storm shining bright
Everything is gonna be okay
The sun shined on me today
Well, it broke through with shining rays
Pouring down upon me and it drove away the rain
Just for a moment
I was free of the torrent
That turned my colored life to dreary gray
All the people they see no effect
But the smiles and the happiness gets wrecked
You got to go off to realize
The sun always shines in paradise
