Story Behind The Song
This song was written at a time when I was going through a very tough phase in my life. I was totally disconnected from singing and music... and was trying to reconnect with that part of me. I needed something to look forward to... to dream of... and that was when this song was born.
Though I had sung my original songs on television and radio before this happened, at that time it seemed as a very distant and not so possible thing. Thus the need to pull myself up and remind myself that I can and that I will someday see it!!!
Song Description
Going through the difficult moments in life... there are some things that keep us going. The one most important thing to keep us going is Hope!
The singer looks forward to a better life... yearns to see the sunshine shining on her!
She keeps her dreams alive and tells herself that she will one day become a star and have the arc lights follow her!

Lyrics
Sunshine
- Written and composed by Henrietta Decruz
Chorus:
I yearn to see the sunlight shining on me... (2)
1.Just like a flower that follows the sun
Wherever it may go...
Chorus
2.Just like a star that takes light from the sun
Wherever it may go...
Chorus
3.I'll be a star shining for the world to see
Wherever I go I'll have the arc lights follow me...
Chorus
4.One day the world will love me for what I am
Someday that love-light will come shining through...
Chorus
