Ray of Sunshine

Ray of Sunshine 



When we were young and went out into  the world ,we chose to give in 
When we could no longer hold our own 
Though we knew better than to listen to 
The voice in the song 
Our hearts are broken and 
in our eyes, the sky is golden 

I am forever changed 
Time has come around 
And yanked the blinds from inside the house

Life is a ray of sunshine upon a cloud 
The rain is coming down 
Heavy upon the crowd
The sun shines bright  
It is a good thing that I have had a few fish 
to fry
 
Life brings tears to the eyes 
And circulates blood to the heart
The only thing that is constant is change
The only thing that is gloomy is the rain

Farewell to the sun in our home 
The only thing that kept us warm in the storm
The only thing that is to be adorned with bouquets and butterflies 
You’re our morning’s star
Lanterns and butterflies for our mom
