The Shadow Proves The Sunshine

by Switchfoot (via Let'sSingIt.com)

Sunshine, won't you be my mother
Sunshine, come and help me sing
My heart is darker than these oceans
My heart is frozen underneath

We Are
Crooked souls trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain,
When the shadow proves the sunshine,
the shadow proves the sunshine

Two scared little run aways
Hold fast till the break of daylight where,
The shadow proves the sunshine,
The shadow proves the sunshine

O, Lord, why did you forsake me?
O, Lord, don't be far away (away)
Storm clouds gathering beside me
Please Lord, don't look the other way

I am a,
Crooked soul trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
Where the shadow proves the sunshine,
the shadow proves the sunshine

Two scared little run aways
Hold fast till the break of daylight where,
The shadow proves the sunshine,
The shadow proves the sunshine

Yeah, yeah!
Shine on me

Yeah, yeah!
Shine on me

Yeah, yeah!
Shine on me

Yeah, yeah!
(shine on me)


(Oh!)

(Oh!)

(Oh!)

We're,
Crooked souls trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
Where the shadow proves the sunshine,
the shadow proves the sunshine

Two scared little run aways
Hold fast till the break of daylight where,
The shadow proves the sunshine,
The shadow proves the sunshine

Yeah, yeah (the shadow proves the sunshine)
Shine on me (the shadow proves the sunshine)

Yeah, yeah (the shadow proves the sunshine)
Shine on me (the shadow proves the sunshine)

Yeah, yeah (the shadow proves the sunshine)
Shine on me (the shadow proves the sunshine)

Shine on me, (the shadow proves the sunshine)
Let my shadows prove the sunshine (the shadow proves the sunshine)

this song has nice lyrics... two souls in the darkness, in the pouring rain, covered by shadows... trying to tell themselves to wait till the dark clouds are lifted up when daylight comes :)

btw, don't get it: why must it be TWO souls?
