Story Behind The Song

The words to this song were written on the road from the North Shore in Hawaii to Honolulu. It was raining on the north shore but we could see clear skies down south and thus the idea spawned that it seems we're always Chasing the sun (a better life)

Song Description

Going through life thinking you're always under a dark cloud and striving to break free into the clear sky, when if you look at what you've got you may find you're already there

Lyrics

I've been living a life that's been laid out for me
All the paths that I've followed chosen fatefully
I was shown where to go but now I've got to roam
All the storms that I've passed have soaked me to the bone

We've been chasin' the sun
Through rolling clouds and grey fog shrouded rain
Searching for seams in the sky
Cause we need the light to chase away the pain

When the rains come down I'm running for the light
And the memories are lost within that flight
When the road takes me there it may be that I was wrong
I might realize I've been there all along

(Chorus)
We've been chasin' the sun
Through rolling clouds and grey fog shrouded rain
Searching for seams in the sky
Cause we need the light to chase away the pain
Yeah we've been chasin the sun
There's a place out there where the rays come down below
Searching the heavens above
For the warmth we crave and the light we need to grow

Rain falling, rain falling, rain falling, rain falling down
(on top of the Chorus x 2)
I wish to fly, wish that I
Now I run, chase the sun
Through the sky, I can't fly
If I dare I?ll meet you there
We'll become, be the one
Away from here I will be clear
There I'll be, you will see
For us to glow we need to grow

Rain falling, rain falling, rain falling, rain falling, rain falling, rain falling
