Lyrics The Sound of Sunshine Going Down - Michael Franti , Spearhead

That's the sound of sunshine going down
And that's the sound of sunshine going down

I wake up in the morning at six o'clock
They say there may be rain but the sun is hot
I wish I had some time just to kill today
And I wish I had a dime for every bill I got to pay

Some days you lose, you win
And the waters as high as the times you're in
So I jump back in where I learned to swim
Try to keep my head above with the best I can

That's why, here I am
Just waiting for this storm to pass me by

That's the sound of sunshine going down
And that's the sound of sunshine going down

I saw my friend, Bobby, he said, "What's up man?"
"You got a little work or a twenty to lend?"
I opened up my hand, he said, "I'm glad to see"
"They could take away my job but not my friends, you see"

Here I am
Just waiting for this storm to pass me by

And that's the sound of sunshine going down
That's the sound of sunshine going down

And we say, "That's the sound of the sun going down"
And the people of the world start to paint the town
The day that's long is a day complete
So kick off your shoes and relax your feet

They say that miracles are never ceasing
And every single soul needs a little releasing
They say that money makes the world go 'round
But only one thing will have the sun go down
Yes, sweet, sweet love will help sun go down
It's true, it's true, it's true

And that's the sound of sunshine going down
That's the sound of sunshine going down

And I say, "You're the one I wanna be with
When the sun goes down"
"You're the one I wanna be with
When the sun goes down"

Singing, "Hallelujah, hallelu, hallelujah, hallelu"
You're the one I wanna be with
When the sun goes down

That's the sound of sunshine going down
And that's the sound of sunshine going down
And all the people say
"That's the sound of sunshine going down"

So the moon can shine on you
So the moon can shine on you
So the moon can shine on you
So the moon can shine on you
