I look at you That's when I, I When the waves Are flooding the shore and I can't Find my way home anymore Yeah, when my world is falling apart When there's no light to break up the dark Everybody needs inspiration Everybody needs a song

Bright (bright) sunshiny day It's gonna be a bright (bright) I can see clearly now the rain is gone I can see all obstacles in my way Here is that rainbow I've been praying for Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind Oh, yes I can make it now the pain
