Sometimes the sun shines on other people’s houses and not mine
Some days the clouds paint the sky all gray
And it takes away my summertime
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you
while I struggle to get mine
If there’s a light in everybody send out your ray of sunshine

I wanna walk the same roads as everybody else
Through the trees and past the gates
Getting high on heavenly breezes, making new friends along the way
I won’t ask much of nobody, I’m just here to sing along
And make my mistakes look gracious
And learn some lessons from my wrongs

But sometimes the sun shines on other people’s houses and not mine
Some days the clouds paint the sky all gray
And it takes away my summertime
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you
while I struggle to get mine
A little light never hurt nobody; send out your ray of sunshine

Oh, if this little light of mine combined with yours today
How many watts could we illuminate?
How many villages could we save?
And my umbrella’s tired of the weather wearing me down
Well, look at me now

You should look as good as your outlook
Would you mind if I took some time
To soak up your light, your beautiful light
You’ve got a paradise inside
I get hungry for love, and thirsty for life
And much too full on the pain
When I look to the sky to help me, and sometimes it looks like rain

As the sun shines on other people’s houses and not mine
And the sky paints those clouds in a way
that it takes away the summertime
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you, while I kindly stand by
If there’s a light in everybody send out your ray of sunshine

Your undeniably warm, you’re cerulean, you’re perfect in design
Won’t you hang around so the sun it can shine on me?
And the clouds they can roll away
And the skies can become our possibility
If there’s a light in everybody send out your ray of sunshine
