Lyrics

Every morning

I get up

Look out the window

I get up

See the sunshine

Breathing down

Every morning comes around


Every morning

I get up

Look out the window

I get up

See the sunshine

Beating down

Every morning comes around


Waves are breaking

I'm in the water


The sun is shining down

The air is buzzing


Through the curtains

I look out

And the sun is melting the ground

When I'm walking through the town

Oh every morning, every morning

Through the curtains I look out

And the sun is melting the ground


Waves are breaking

I'm in the water


The sun is shining down

The air is buzzing

The sun is shining down

Mother nature's (the air is) buzzing


In the city

For the people

See the buildings

Crowd together


The sun is shining down

The air is shinning

Come on now

Let me know now

Tell me, tell me, tell me now


Listen to me

Can you hear me?

Ooo Hear me

Officially appears on

Sun Is Shining” has been played in 18 soundchecks.
