Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everybody seems to know when he's around
He lifts me up and fades without a sound
Mr. Sun, won't you shine?
Mr. Sun, won't you shine?
[Verse 2]
Why he's here I will never know
He makes you know you feel like
Somewhere to go
Mr. Sun, won't you shine?
Mr. Sun, just shine
[Verse 3]
Walking with a man called Sun
I think my journey's just begun
Do you think he'll mind?
[Verse 4]
He lifts you up, he shines then he's gone
But you know you need him more when he's gone
Mr. Sun, just shine
Mr. Sun, just shine
[Verse 5]
Walking with a man called Sun
I think my journey's just begun
Do you think he'll mind?
[Verse 6]
Shine
Shine
Shine
Shine
Shine
Let it shine
