|
When you cant find the light, |
|
That got you through the cloudy days, |
|
When the stars aint shinin bright, |
|
You feel like youve lost youre way, |
|
When those candle lights of home, |
|
Burn so very far away, |
|
Well you got to let your soul shine, |
|
Just like my momma used to say. |
|
(chorus) |
|
She used to say soulshine, |
|
Its better than sunshine, |
|
Its better than moonshine, |
|
Damn sure better than rain. |
|
And if the people dont mind, |
|
We all get this way sometime, |
|
Got to let your soul shine, shine through the break of day. |
|
Growin up, I thought I had it made, |
|
Gonna make it on my own. |
|
Life can take the strongest man, |
|
Make him feel so all alone. |
|
Now sometimes I feel a cold wind, |
|
Blowin through my achin bones, |
|
I think back to what my daddy said, |
|
He said girl, it's the darkest before the dawn: |
|
(chorus) |
|
Let your soul shine, |
|
Its better than sunshine, |
|
Its better than moonshine, |
|
Damn sure better than rain. |
|
And if the people dont mind, |
|
We all feel this way sometimes, |
|
Gotta let your soul shine, shine through the break of day. |
|
Sometimes a man can feel this emptiness, |
|
Like a woman has shot down to his very soul. |
|
A woman too, God knows, she can feel like this. |
|
And when your world seems cold, you got to let your spirit take control. |
|
(chorus) |
|
Let your soul shine, |
|
Its better than sunshine, |
|
Its better than moonshine, |
|
Damn sure better than rain. |
|
Lord now people dont mind, |
|
We all get this way sometimes, |
|
Gotta let your soul shine, shine through the break of day. |
|
Oh, its better than sunshine, |
|
Its better than moonshine, |
|
Damn sure better than rain. |
|
And if the people dont mind, |
|
We all get this way sometimes, |
|
Gotta let your soul shine, shine till the break of day. |
