Well, sometimes the sun shines on
Other peoples houses and not mine
Some days the clouds paint the sky all grey
And it takes away my summertime
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you
While I struggle to get mine
If there's a light in everybody
Send out your ray of sunshine

I wanna walk the same roads as everybody else
Through the trees and past the gates
Getting high on heavenly breezes
Making new friends along the way
I won't ask much of nobody
I'm just here to sing along
And make my mistakes, looks gracious
And learn some lessons from my wrongs

But sometimes the sun shines on
Other peoples houses and not mine
Some days the clouds paint the sky all grey
And it takes away my summertime
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you
While I struggle to get mine
A little light never hurt nobody
Send out your ray of sunshine

Oh, if this little light of mine
Combined with yours today
How many watts could we luminate?
How many villages could we save?
And my umbrella's tired of the weather
Wearing me down
Oh, look at me now

You should look as good as your outlook
Would you mind if I took some time
To soak up your light, your beautiful light?
You've got a paradise inside
I get hungry for love and thirsty for life
And much too full on the pain
When I look to the sky to help me
And sometimes it looks like rain

As the sun shines on
Other peoples houses and not mine
And the sky paints those clouds in a way
That it takes away the summertime
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you
While I kindly stand by
If there's a light in everybody
Send out your ray of sunshine

You're undeniably warm, you're cerulean
You're perfect in desire
Won't you hang around?
So the sun, it can shine on me
And the clouds they can roll away
And the sky can become a possibility
If there's a light in everybody
Send out your ray of sunshine
