Sun and rain

Golden mornings, pocketful of gold The sweetest stories that were ever told Laughing in the crowd, drowning in the light Everything is easy, everything is bright But wealth is just a season, a fleeting state of mind Leaving all the fortunes and the gold behind Suddenly the rain falls, heavy on the street Empty pockets walking on concrete Poverty isn't just a lack of silver coins It’s the hollow echo where the shadow joins Starving for a breakthrough, shivering in the cold Trading all the promises that we once were sold Oh, the sun and the rain, they dance upon the skin The losses we carry, the victories we win Rich in the morning, poor by the night Chasing the darkness, begging for the light We are lonely in a crowded room, happy in the wild The ancient soul living inside a broken child A thousand friends around me, but I am all alone Sitting on a crowded stage, turning into stone [Female Contralto] Ears are full of noise, but the heart is out of touch Funny how a little love can cost so damn much Then a quiet moment breaks the heavy chain A stranger's smile washes out the pain Oh, the sun and the rain, they dance upon the skin The losses we carry, the victories we win Rich in the morning, poor by the night Chasing the darkness, begging for the light We are lonely in a crowded room, happy in the wild The ancient soul living inside a broken child You can't taste the sweet without the bitter taste You can't find the path without the miles of waste The downs make the ups feel like we can fly You have to face the storm to appreciate the sky! Oh, the sun and the rain, they dance upon the skin The losses we carry, the victories we win Rich in the morning, poor by the night Chasing the darkness, begging for the light We are lonely in a crowded room, happy in the wild The ancient soul living inside a broken child Sun and rain... Loss and gain... Empty hands, full heart. That’s where we start.
