| Lyrics:Ub40 Music:Ub40 | |
| You tell me there's no darkness | |
| While the sun shines down on you | |
| And just because your life is peaceful | |
| There's no fighting left to do | |
| For every cup that runneth over | |
| Many more are filled with pain | |
| You talk to me of sunshine | |
| When it's pouring down with rain | |
| Just because you can't see it | |
| Doesn't mean it isn't there | |
| Just because it can't touch you | |
| Doesn't mean you shouldn't care | |
| For every life that's lit with love | |
| Many more are racked with pain | |
| You talk to me of sunshine | |
| When it's pouring down with rain | |
| Chorus | |
| It's a long black night, good people | |
| Descended on our land | |
| Share your light | |
| Make a flower grow | |
| In the desert sand |
