Sweet Sunshine

By Michael William Livingstone
(Intro)
Yellow are the bricks in the road
Greener is the grass...on the other side
Nothing in front of me now but Heaven
So I'll sit back and enjoy the ride

(Chorus)
And it won't matter...what I used to do
Once I get across the line
Cause everything there...will be brand new
And I can leave that all behind

No more worries...no more chains
I've already done my time
No more heartache...no more pain
Just a bright blue sky...and a sweet sunshine

(Verse 1)
Some folks said...I couldn't be saved
So I set out to prove them wrong
But they looked at me funny...when I prayed
And wondered what I was on

Still others used to call me names
Said I was a "Jesus" freak
One guy even hit me...on the side of the face
So I offered him my other cheek

(Chorus)
But it won't matter...what they used to do
Once I get across the line
Cause everything there...will be brand new
And I can leave that all behind

No more worries...no more chains
I've already done my time
No more heartache...no more pain
Just a bright blue sky...and a sweet sunshine

(Bridge)
Yellow are the bricks in the road
Greener is the grass...on the other side
Nothing in front of me now but Heaven
So I'll sit back and enjoy the ride

(Verse 2)
Now those folks who said...I couldn't be saved
Who said...I was too far gone
Who looked at me funny...when I prayed
Can see that all my troubles are gone

And the ones who used to call me names
Who said I was a "Jesus" freak
Now tender their hands and whisper "Pray for me"
As they kiss me on my other cheek

(Chorus)
But it won't matter...what we used to do
Once we get across the line
Cause everything there...will be brand new
And we can leave that all behind

No more worries...no more chains
We've already done our time
No more heartache...no more pain
Just a bright blue sky...and a sweet sunshine

(Outro)
Yeah...Yellow are the bricks in the road my friend
Greener is the grass...on the other side
Nothing in front of us now but Heaven
So sit back and enjoy the ride

And it won't matter...what we used to do
Once we get across the line
Cause everything there...will be brand new
And we can leave that all behind

No more worries...no more chains
We've already done our time
No more heartache...no more pain
Just a bright blue sky...and a sweet sunshine
