The Shadow Proves The Sunshine

The Shadow Proves The Sunshine - Switchfoot

Sunshine, come and help me sing
My heart is darker than these oceans
My heart is frozen underneath

We are..
Crooked souls trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
When the shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine

Two scared little run aways
Hold fast till the break of daylight where
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine

O Lord, why did you forsake me?
O Lord, dont be far away (away)
Storm clouds gathering beside me
Please Lord, Don't look the other way

I am..
A crooked soul trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
When the shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine

Two scared little run aways
Hold fast till the break of daylight where
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine

Yeah, Yeah!
Shine on me

Yeah, Yeah!
Shine on me

Yeah, Yeah!
Shine on me

Yeah, Yeah!
Shine on me

(Oh!)

We are..
Crooked souls trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
When the shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine

Two scared little run aways
Hold fast till the break of daylight where
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine

Yeah, Yeah (the shadow proves the sunshine)
Shine on me (the shadow proves the sunshine)

Yeah, Yeah (the shadow proves the sunshine)
Shine on me (the shadow proves the sunshine)

Yeah, Yeah (the shadow proves the sunshine)
Shine on me (the shadow proves the sunshine)

Shine on me (the shadow proves the sunshine)
Let my shadow prove the sunshine

(The Shadow Proves the Sunshine)

I know i said i was going to do the "Artist of the Month" thingy - which i have failed to do for the past couple of months.

Well i started out with the intention to spread and promote fantastic music through this kbkb channel of mine whose readership is not high. But i do whatever little i can to let fantastic music to be heard. :)

Therefore - i might not promise to do it every month religiously but i will do it as often as i think a good song needs to be heard. I am still doing it with the same intention just not as frequent - but that does not undermine the efforts, does it? :)

I am in love with this song for so long because it is so meaningful.

When i first heard of the song and its title - i thought how amazingly apt it is.

We see our shadows so often that we easily forget sunshine is behind us.

This song serves as a reminder for me to not forget that sunshine is just round the corner when i see too much of my shadow, or somebody else's shadow. HAHA~

TATA!
