Where the Sun Always Shines
The Oak Ridge Boys · Voices [1999]
She got up and made her coffee, got ready for the office
Put her makeup on and prayed she wouldn't cry
He hid behind his paper, he didn't want to face her
After all the stupid things they fought about last night.
And all day long she wondered is it over
And all day long he said, ''It just can't end this way.''
On his way home he stopped and bought some roses
And he practiced every word he had to say.
For every day there is a night, for every summer there's a fall
For every rose there's a thorn upon the vine
I didn't mean to hurt you girl, but even in a perfect world
A little rain has got to fall from time to time.
But a few little teardrops ain't gonna wash away
a love as strong as yours and mine
Baby, don't you know nothing ever grows
Where the sun always shines?
They sat down on the sofa, he said, ''Baby, please sit closer.''
She reached out and took him by the hand
She said, ''Thank you for the flowers with a love's as good as ours
Sometimes you have to trust what you don't understand.''
For every day there is a night, for every summer there's a fall
For every rose there's a thorn upon the vine
I didn't mean to hurt you girl, but even in a perfect world
A little rain has got to fall from time to time.
All night long they were all that mattered
All night long they were lovers, they were friends
All night long the rain fell on the window
Amd they fell in love all over again.
--- Instrumental ---
Baby, don't you know nothing's gonna grow
Where the sun always shines
Baby, don't you know nothing's gonna grow
Where the sun always shines...
