Let the Sunshine On

Let the sun shine on
Let the sun take your woes
Sunrise starts another day
Let the sun shine on
When the sun doesn't shine 
I can be your sunshine
Let the sun shine on
The sun will always shine again
and I will always be your friend
Let the sun shine on

New Day

The darkness comes and the shadows fall
The sun recedes behind the horizon
The breeze cools and the tide goes out
Night is upon us as the day is done
Life continues at a different pace
As I wonder what the new day will bring
Will it be the day disaster strikes or
 Will it be the day that miracles come to light
There is safety in the dark
the new day can't cast it's spell
be it peril or reward until the dawn 
and as the sun rises in the east
I wonder again what will the new day will bring
