The Sun Will Never Shine

  • In corridors of air the clouds were waiting there
    They knew that never again the skies would be so blue
    They took away the sun and with it took the fun
    It's true, and now there is really nothing I can do
    So I look outside my window at the sheets of pouring rain
    And I wonder if the sun will come again
    But the sun will never shine the way it used to do
    The clouds won't let it through
    Oh the sun will never shine its smile for me and you
    The clouds won't let it through

    It wasn't long ago the people that I knew were glad
    And nothing they ever thought about was sad
    But since the sun has gone their laughing times are none
    That's bad, to make them forget the happy times they've had
    So they look outside their window at the sheets of pouring rain
    And they wonder if the sun will come again

    But the sun will never shine the way it used to do
    The clouds won't let it through
    Oh the sun will never shine its smile for me and you
    The clouds won't let it through Writer/s: JOHN LEES, LES HOLROYD, MELVYN PRITCHARD, STUART J WOLSTENHOLME
