Five for Fighting Sister Sunshine song lyrics

I traded my smile for a pain pill

I needed a place maybe I could feel better

But all the while I could never get you out of my mind

I had a child with the universe

I'll never understand why the good man's cursed

If you're gonna have a heart then you've gotta be the one to die

Hey, hey, Sister Sunshine

You been living in the sky

Are you ever gonna come on down?

Hey, hey, Sister Sunshine

Show me love

I prayed, though I've never been a God man

You never know, maybe it just might mean something

I switched back; see if anything was going right

The washer called me a bloody "F"

Said, "You're gonna save one? Better save yourself.

And you'll never know me 'til you find your own piece of life."

Hey, hey, Sister Sunshine

You been living in the sky

Are you ever gonna come on down?

Brother, can you help me?

Hey, hey, Sister Sunshine

Show me love, love, love

Gonna show me love, love, love, love

And if you fly away

I won't let you fly away

There's that and nothing more

There's that and only that

Nothing more

Hey, hey, Sister Sunshine

You been living in the sky

Are you ever gonna come on down?

Now, Brother, can you help me?

Hey, hey, Sister Sunshine

You been living in the sky

Are you ever gonna come on down?

Hey, hey, Sister Sunshine

You been living in the sky

Are you ever gonna come on down?

No one's ever gonna help me

Hey, hey, Sister Sunshine

You been living in the sky

Are you ever gonna come on down?

Hey, hey, Sister Sunshine
