[Rise and Shine]

I’ve seen tears in my mother’s eyes,
I’ve seen anger in the working pace of my father’s stride
And I wonder why.
When all I feel is love inside
When all I feel is love inside
Chorus:
So rise,
Rise and shine, my baby.
Tomorrow’s here,
Won’t you rise,
Rise and shine for me.
Wipe away those tears and rise,
Rise and shine,
Shine for me.
If the world is broken,
It’s just because hearts get broken,
It’s just because hearts get broken,
Sticks and stones have broken my bones,
But words hurt even more,
And I wonder what for.
When all I feel is love inside,
When all I feel is love inside.
Chorus
There were times you hurt me so,
I had to run and hide.
If I can dry your tears for you,
Then why can’t you dry mine,
When I know all you feel is love inside.
Chorus
