[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Takin a lot of givin and makin life worth livin
At a slow pace, love made it a long race
Well, I can t really say things are going my way
But the love is so pleasin , ah, the love is the reason
[Chorus]
That I ve waited so long for my sun to shine
Shine, shine, shine
Well, I ve waited so long tryin to put it in song
Whether rise or fall, livin ain t quite so bad after all
[Verse 2]
Livin and dyin without even tryin
Well, with some, you might find a satisfied mind
Well, there s right ways and wrong ways and lots of them long days
That makes life worth livin when the best that you re givin
[Chorus]
Tries to open your eyes so your sun can shine
Shine, shine, shine
Well, I ve waited so long tryin to put it in song
Whether rise or fall, livin ain t quite so bad
[Bridge]
As I wandered through the darkness, I knew
Though I wondered what I was gonna do
When the Sun started shinin then there d be no denyin
That I d have such a love of a new day, givin some, and takin some, too
Now my sun shines high on every bluesy day and I know what I was going through
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Well, the love is so pleasin , ah, the love is the reason
That I ve waited so long for my sun to shine
Shine, shine, shine
Well, I ve waited so long tryin to put it in song
Whether rise or fall, livin ain t quite so bad after all
[Outro]
