The Shadow Proves The Sunshine Lyrics

Performed by Switchfoot

Sunshine, won't you be my mother
Sunshine, come and help me sing
My heart is darker than these oceans
My heart is frozen underneath

We are crooked souls trying to stay up straight,
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine

Two scared little runaways
Hold fast to the break of day light were
The shadow proves the sunshine

Oh Lord, why did you forsake me?
Oh Lord, don't be far away away
Storm clouds gathering beside me
Please Lord, don't look the other way

Crooked souls trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine

Two scared little runaways
Hold fast to the break of day light were
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine

Yeah Yeah, shine on me
Yeah Yeah, shine on me
Yeah Yeah, shine on me
Yeah Yeah, shine on me

Crooked souls trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine

Two scared little runaways
Hold fast to the break of day light were
The shadow proves the sunshine
The shadow proves the sunshine

Yeah Yeah, shine on me
Yeah Yeah, shine on me
Yeah Yeah, shine on me

Shine on me,
Let my shadows prove the sunshine

I listen to this song every time I'm down, and it always in some way cheers me up... helps me see, that even though some things in my life are going wrong, there are also a lot of them that are going right, and I forget far too often to be grateful for them. It puts things in perspective for me and helps me be grateful.

Gerald's Tune | Reviewer: Norrie | 11/15/07

I have a good friend who has had a really tough upbringing. Whenever he gets up to sing, guitar in hand and gives us all a rendition of this tune, it's obvious he means every word!

A wonderful song - full of inspiration and encouragement. Rock on, Gerald!

My shadow | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/11/07

My ex used to play this song so often when we were together. That was the time of perfect joy. I still remember his laughing face talking about this song. Now it's over but I still love him so much. That is my shadow ... hope I get to see the sunshine again one day.

Let My Shadows Prove The Sunshine | Reviewer: Kevin Borst | 8/8/07

This song talks about Jesus being the the Sunshine and how it shines on all of us. The key line in the song is, "The Shadow Proves The Sunshine" this is saying that the way we live our lives shows others Christs Love. In the last line the Artist states, "Let my shadows prove the sunshine", here hes saying...let my life show others Christ.

Great Song.
