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
