Her mama says she can't go out
Baby girl one day you'll understand
When all of this is in the past
Till then lest you forget to wash your hands

Look for joy sewn in the seam of sorrow
When life keeps on getting you down
There'll be time to sit and smell the roses

I don't wanna waste a lifetime chasing pots of gold
I don't wanna miss the sunshine standing in the cold
I don't wanna be the one who's left behind
I wanna catch a glimpse of life

C'mon darlin', now we've started something that we've both gotta

And the friends thought it was ?? stolen away
Out of the sunshine
Make one day radio shows long into the night

Red casse

When I look over my shoulder see a trail of broken dreams
Am I getting any closer to where I wanna be
'Cause I never seem to catch up no matter how I try
To the man I want to be
I'm always just one step behind

Now it feels like something is about to change
I can feel it

Some people seem like heavy weather
Some people seem to cloud your day
They only bring you down to somewhere lower
But when it comes to you all I can say is

You make my life a better place
You bring the sunshine all through the rain
You make my life a better place
