Lyrics Sunshine In Their Eyes - Stevie Wonder

A lonesome tear, a hungry face
A barren pain, a dream unchased
Oh, I can't wait until the day
There's sunshine in their eyes

A prayer is heard by one so small
Let love be in the hearts of all
Oh, I can't wait until the day
There's sunshine in their eyes

You and I may never see them cry
Or wonder why the world's so cold
(You feel that they're too young)
(To take a look around)
But in their faces I can see the trouble all around

The day we must turn into lies
The truth already in their minds
Oh, I can't wait until the day
There's sunshine in their eyes
(He can't wait to see the day) doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
There's sunshine in their eyes

Oh, no, no
Sunshine in their eyes

Oh, my mother's worried 'cause she feels the world is ending
She believes that everything is coming to an end
Papa's being real careful 'cause his brother Sam was robbed
Tryin' to buy just a loaf of bread for baby John

(See how the world escaped)
All the streets turning bare
(Most of the news is bad)
Crime just speeds in the air

Sad is the song
Rolling along
Everything is happening

Weird is the tune
Are we all doomed?
Everything is happening

Cost of living's up, but the pay is low down
Hate to see the babies starve 'cause momma can't be found
Sister lives alone, bolts and chains the door at night
Never ever walks an alley or a shorter way

(See how the world escaped)
All the streets turning bare
(Most of the news is bad)
Crime just speeds in the air

Sad is the song
Rolling along
Everything is happening

Weird is the tune
Are we all doomed?
Everything is happening

Father Bill's gone fighting in a place where he's a stranger
But good men die a stranger in every war
We all hide in shame, boldly pointing to another
When the blame we know for sure is right in ourselves (in ourselves)
In ourselves (in ourselves)
In ourselves

Sad is the song
Rolling along
Everything is happening (oh, people)

Weird is the tune
Are we all doomed?
Everything is happening, whoa (da da, da ra da)

Da ra da ra, da ra da ra
Da ra da ra, da ra da ra
Da ra da ra, da
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Da ra da ra da, da ra da ra, da ra da ra
Da ra da ra, da ra da ra
Da ra da ra, da
Everybody sing it now (ooh)

Da ra da ra da (get it), da ra da ra, da ra da ra
Da ra da ra, da ra da ra
Da ra da ra, da
Oh (oh)

Da ra da ra da, da ra da ra, da ra da ra
Da ra da ra, da ra da ra (baby, baby)
Da ra da ra, da (yah)

Hey, right here in ourselves (da ra da ra da)
Yeah, baby (da ra da ra, da ra da ra)
Blame's right here in ourselves (da ra da ra, da)

Get it (da ra da ra da)
Everybody get with it (da ra da ra da)
Can't you hear me? Get with it (da ra da ra da)

Oh, hey, hey, yeah (da ra da ra da)
Get it (da ra da ra da)
Everybody get with it, hey (da ra da ra da)
Can't you hear me? Get it, yeah, yeah (da ra da ra da)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ah (da ra da ra da)

Get it, baby (da ra da ra da)
Oh God, don't go (da ra da ra da)
Have mercy, yeah (da ra da ra da)
I cannot wait a day, yeah (da ra da ra da)
Everybody, oh (da ra da ra da)
