Sunshine In Their Eyes

Stevie Wonder / Syreeta Wright

A lonesome tear
A hungry face
A barren pain
A dream unchased
Oh I can't wait until the day there's sunshine in their eyes

A prayer is heard
By one so small
Let love be in the
Hearts of all
Oh I can't wait until the day there's sunshine in their eyes

You and I may never see them cry
Or wonder why the world's so cold
You feel that they're too young
To take a look around
But in their faces I can see the trouble all around

Today we must
Turn into lies
The truth already
In their minds
Oh I can't wait until the day there's sunshine in their eyes

Do do do do do do do do
There's sunshine in their eyes

Hey no no sunshine in their eyes
Uh uh

All my mother's worried
'Cause she feels the world is ending
She believes that everything is coming to an end
Papa being real careful
'Cause his brother Sam was robbed
Trying to buy just a loaf of bread for baby John

See how the world scared
All the streets turning bad
Most of the news is bad
Crime just breeds in the air

Sad is the song rolling along
Everything is happenin'
When is the tune now we are domed (I need to check this line out)
Everything is Happenin'
 


Cost of livin's up
But the pay is low down
Hate to see the baby starve
'Cause mama can't be found

Sister lives alone
Bolts and chains her door at night
Never ever walks an alley or a short away

See how the world scared
All the streets turning bad
Most of the news is bad
Crime just breeds in the air

Sad is the song rolling along
Everything is happenin'
Great is the tune now we are domed
Everything is Happenin'

Brother Bill gone fighting
In a place where he is a stranger
But could men die a stranger in every war

We all hide in shame
Boldly pour into another
When the blame we know for sure is right in ourselves
In ourselves

Da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da
Yeah

Da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da
Ooh

Da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da
Oh hey hey
 


Sad is the song rolling along
Everything is happenin'
Great is the tune now we are domed
Everything is Happenin'

Da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da
Hey hey hey

 

Da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da
Everybody sings now

 

Da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da
Hey
 

Stevie Wonder
