When you can't find the light, |
|
That got you through a cloudy day, |
|
When the stars ain't shinin' bright, |
|
You feel like you've lost you're way, |
|
When those candle lights of home, |
|
Burn so very far away, |
|
Now you got to let your soul shine, |
|
Just like my daddy used to say. [Chorus] |
|
He used to say soulshine, |
|
It's better than sunshine, |
|
It's better than moonshine, |
|
Damn sure better than rain. |
|
Yeah now people don't mind, |
|
We all get this way sometime, |
|
Got to let your soul shine, shine till the break of day. |
|
I grew up thinkin' that |
|
I had it made, |
|
Gonna make it on my own. |
|
Life can take the strongest man, |
|
Make him feel so alone. |
|
Now sometimes |
|
I feel a cold wind, |
|
Blowin' through my achin' bones, |
|
I think back to what my daddy said, |
|
He said "Boy, in the darkness before the dawn:" [Chorus] |
|
Let your soul shine, |
|
It's better than sunshine, |
|
It's better than moonshine, |
|
Damn sure better than rain. |
|
Yeah now people don't mind, |
|
We all get this way sometimes, |
|
Gotta let your soul shine, shine till the break of day. |
|
Sometimes a man can feel this emptiness, |
|
Like a woman has robbed him of 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, |
|
It's better than sunshine, |
|
It's better than moonshine, |
|
Damn sure better than rain. |
|
Lord now people don't mind, |
|
We all get this way sometimes, |
|
Gotta let your soul shine, shine till the break of day. |
|
Oh, it's better than sunshine, |
|
It's better than moonshine, |
|
Damn sure better than rain. |
|
Yeah now people don't mind, |
|
We all get this way sometimes, |
|
Gotta let your soul shine, shine till the break of day. |
