"SUNLIGHT"

Verse 1
It's so hard when you're alone
To find a reason to be livin'.--
But if you open up your heart,
You'll find there's something to believe in.

Chorus 1
How I long to make you happy,-
And how I wish for you to be free.---
Just let the love that He would put with in you
Shine like the sunlight in your eyes.

Verse 2
And as I watch you walk away,
I wonder where you'll be tomorrow.-
And all the things that we shared today,
Oh, will you let them take away your sorrow?-

Chorus 2
How I long to make you happy,
And how I wish for you to be free.
Just let the love that He would put within you
Shine like the sunlight in your eyes.

Refrain 1
Shine like the sunlight in your, [shine like the sun,]
Shine like the sunlight in your, [shine like the sun,]
Shine like the sunlight in your eyes.
Shine like the sunlight in your, [shine like the sun,]
Like the sunlight in your, [like the sun,]
Shine like the sunlight in your eyes.

Bridge
And though it's hard when you're alone,
And you can't make it on your own,
Someone's waitin' there for you.
If you'll just open up your heart,
The clouds of loneliness will part,
[And His love, like the sun,]
Will shine around you!-

Refrain 2
Shine like the sunlight in your, [shine like the sun,]
Shine like the sunlight, [like the sun,]
Shine like the sunlight in your eyes.
[Love will shine like sunlight in your eyes.]
Shine like the sunlight in your, [the sunlight,]
Like the sunlight, [like the sun,]
Shine like the sunlight in your eyes.-
Shine like the sunlight in your eyes..
