Sunshine drys up the sidewalks and wipes all my teardrops away
I wheel my wheelchair to the window
And stare at the rain as it falls on the street
I wish in the gloom of my dark little room
That a ray from the sunshine would peep
Because rain drops just like my tears
Won't let me watch the kids play
But sunshine drys up the sidewalks
And wipes all my teardrops away
It's so good to see children like me
Playing games on the street when it's dried
They laugh and have fun
They skip and they run
And they make me feel happy inside
While rain drops just like my tears
Won't let me watch the kids play
But sunshine drys up the sidewalks
And wipes all my teardrops away
Sometimes when I smile at the kids for awhile
They come up to my window to see
My funny wheelchair, and my legs that aren't there
And they often pick flowers for me
Until rain drops just like my tears
Won't let me watch the kids play
But sunshine drys up the sidewalks
And wipes all my teardrops away
Tomorrow I know, I don't want to go
With that lady who comes in the van
She'll take me away, where children won't play
Near my sunshiny window again
And rain drops just like my tears
Won't let me watch the kids play
But sunshine drys up the sidewalks
And wipes all my teardrops away
Sunshine drys up the sidewalks and wipes all my teardrops away.
