Soulshine


When you can't find the lightThat guides you through a cloudy dayWhen the stars ain't shining brightAnd it feels like you lost your wayWhen the candle lights of homeBurn so very far awayWell, you got to let your soul shineJust like my daddy used to say--
He used to say soul shineIt's better than sunshineBetter than moonshineDamn sure better than the rainHey now people don't mindWe all feel this way sometimesGot to let your soul shineShine till the break of day
Grew up thinking that I had it madeGonna make it on my own.But life can take the strongest manAnd make him feel so aloneBut now sometimes I feel a cold windBlowing through my aching bonesI think back to what my daddy said.He said, "Boy, there's darkness before the dawn"
Let your soul shineOh, it's better than sunshineBetter than moonshineDamn sure better than rainYeah now people don't mindWe all feel this way sometimes.Got to let your soul shineShine till the break of day
Sometimes a man can feel this emptinessLike a woman has robbed him of his very soulWoman too, God knows, she can feel like thisAnd when your world seems coldYou got to let your spirit take control!
Talking about the soul shineBetter than sunshineBetter than moonshineDamn sure better than rainLord, now people don't mindWe all feel this way sometimesGot to let your soul shineYeah, shine on and on and on and on
Oh, it's better than sunshineBetter than moonshineDamn sure better than rainYeah, now people don't mindWe all feel this way sometimesGot to let your soul shineShine till the break of day

"Soulshine" my favorite song for 18 years.
