The sun is rising.
As the red sun breaks
Through the deep gray skies
And the rain
It turns to wind
I see a shade
Of deep, deep blue
That will never
Be seen again
Lying out beneath the trees
And thinking how life has been
I realize the world is one
And the shape that it is in
Oh, and the world it will change
For me alone
And no one else
Will have a say
And the beauty
Will return again
As the band
Begins to play
When I hit the stage
I'll know that I have won
Into another's life
Will shine a little sun
Well you know that the world
Will be a happier place
When all the work is done
And the band will play
A happy tune
While from behind gray skies
Breaks the sun.
