when you can't find the light
that guides you through a cloudy day
when the stars ain't shining bright
you feel like you've lost you're way
when the candle light of home
burns so very far away
well
you got to let your soul shine
just like my daddy used to say
he used to say soulshine
it's better than sunshine
it's better than moonshine
damn sure better than rain
hey now people
don't mind
we all get this way sometime
got to let your soul shine
shine till the break of day
i grew up thinking that i had it made
gonna make it on my own
life can take the strongest man
make him feel so alone
now sometimes i feel a cold wind
blowing through my aching bones
i think back to what my daddy said
he said
boy
