Sunshine on the Land
I went to see an old friendWho was soon to pass awayHe said, "My life has been so good to meNow I've still got one more day"Now he said that as he watched the morning sunAnd then he smiled my wayBecause he said that every morningHe'd lived his life that wayHe said, "I am the sunshineYou are the sunshineWe are the sunshineHelp me understandWe are the sunshine on the land"He said this day is like a life you liveIt's never here to stayBecause your time is always runnin' byLike the sun across the dayBut it's like lookin' at the sunshine from the earthThe light does come and goBut when you're lookin' at the earth shine from the sunIt's quite a different showHe said it's time you knowLetras de cancionesThat I am the sunshineYou are the sunshineWe are the sunshineHelp me understandWe are the sunshine on the landNow I'm thinkin' of the things he saidWe're walkin' toward the graveAnd I haven't lived a life like hisBut I've still got one more dayNow you could say it's only flesh and boneThe life that's in your handsBut I like to think it's something moreLike the sunshine on the landAnd I am the sunshineYou are the sunshineWe are the sunshineHelp me understandWe are the sunshine on the landWe are the sunshine on the land From Letras Mania
