Lyrics
When sunshines shines on your shadow,
Your shadow's no longer in sight.
It shrinks back into the shade;
Trying to avoid the light.
When you're surrounded by darkness
With nothing to show the way.
We'll just drench it with moonbeams
And your path will glow in the rays.
Sunshine can lighten your load
Moonlight can brighten your road.
There's no shadow so dark
That light can't leave its mark.
Bring me your troubles in darkness
That follow you today.
We'll just soak them in sunlight
Where they will simply fade.
And if clouds hinder your vision
So you can't see your dreams,
We'll just pierce them with brightness
And let the sun do its thing.
Sunshine can lighten your load
Moonlight can brighten your road.
There's no shadow so dark
That light can't leave its mark.
If raindrops dampen your spirit
And fall all around you,
We'll collect all the water
And float away in our canoe
When snowflakes start to mount up
And make it hard to move forward,
We'll let the sunlight take over
And melt away the icebergs.
Sunshine can lighten your load
Moonlight can brighten your road.
There's no shadow so dark
That light can't leave its mark.
When sunshines shines on your shadow,
Your shadow's no longer in sight.
It shrinks back into the shade;
Trying to avoid the light.
