When I woke this mornin', something inside of me told me this would be

my day

I heard the morning train, I felt the wind change, too many times I'm on

my way



Come on sunshine, what can you show me

Where can you take me to make me understand

The wind can shake me, brothers forsake me

The rain can touch me, but can I touch the rain



And then I saw the sunrise above the cotton sky like a candycane delight

I saw the milkman, I saw the business man, I saw the only road in sight

Then I got to thinkin' what makes you want to go, to know the wherefore

and the why

So many times now, oh Lord I can't remember if it's September or July



Then all at once it came to me, I saw the wherefore, and you can see it

if you try

It's in the sun above, it's in the one you love, you'll never know the

reason why



Come on sunshine, what can you show me

Where can you take me to make me understand

The wind can shake me, brothers forsake me

The rain can touch me, but can I touch the rain

So much to lose, so much to gain
