[Verse 1:]

So many nights I’ve cried, 

for better days I prayed for; 

but through it all I know 

the sun is gonna shine if I hold out, 

the sun is gonna shine if I hold out. 



[Verse 2:]

Sometimes I feel alone, 

no one around to call to on; 

I must endure for I know 

the sun is gonna shine if I hold out, 

the sun is gonna shine if I hold out. 



[Bridge:]

Weeping may endure for a night, 

trouble don’t last always; 

joy comes in the morning, 

just wait ‘til the morning. 



[Verse 3:]

I won’t let go of my faith 

the sun is gonna shine if I hold out, 

the sun is gonna shine if I hold out. 



[Vamp:]

The sun is gonna shine.
