Soulshine

When you can't find a light
To guide you through a cloudy day
When the stars ain't shining bright
You feel like you've lost your way
When the candle light of home
Burns so very far away
Now you gotta let your soul shine
Just like my daddy used to say

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 feel this way sometime
Gotta let your soul shine
Shine till the break of day

I grew up thinking I had it made
Gonna make it on my own
Life can take the strongest man
And make him feel so alone
Now sometimes I feel a cold wind
Blowing through my aching bones
I think back to what my daddy said
He said boy in this darkness before the dawn

Let your soulshine
It's better than sunshine
It's better than moonshine
Damn sure better than rain
Yeah now people don't mind
We all feel this way sometime
Got to 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 gotta let your spirit take control

Talking 'bout soulshine
It's better than sunshine
It's better than moonshine
Damn sure better than rain
Yeah now people don't mind
We all feel this way sometime
Got to 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 feel this way sometime
Got to let your soul shine
Shine till the break of day
