Went down to the corner, sunshine in my hand
 
 I tried to sell the truth but I couldn't make it stand
 
 Ooh, come on, I cry, cause I'm feeling kinda low
 
 Let it shine, let it shine, let it grow
 
  
  And when you feel someone closing down on me
 
 I'm going to myself just to see what I can see
 
 And when the stars are right I'll come sailing right on by
 
 Where the sun won't go wrong, long as I...
  
 
 Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road ahead
 
 Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road
 
 Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road ahead
 
 Cause it's carrying me home again
  
 
 So when all around you, I'm going down so fast
 
 That you can see on you averted they have passed
 
 Don't let them satisfy the need to tell you so
 
 Let it shine, let it shine, let it show
  
 
 And when the four winds blow and you're feeling kind of small
 
 Everything's wrong and nothing's right at all
 
 Ooh, you go into yourself and find a way ahead
 
 It's very clear to me you're ----------
  
 
 Instead of feeling lonely, instead of feeling blue
 
 You come on with a smile that comes sailing right on through
 
 Wait till the stars above and the ground way down below
 
 Let it shine, let it shine, let it show
  
 
 Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road ahead
 
 Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road
 
 Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road ahead
 
 Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine on the road...
