Ooooh ah
If i told you of the tears we'll cry in five years time today
What would you say?
And if i tried to show you half the things
That's standing in our way
Tell me, why would you stay?
Ooooh ah
He stands in the doorway saying that
Some things are gonna change
You know it's mean
So detached and sitting pretty
While the streets go up in flames
Does he feel ashamed?
A little more sunshine when we're down
It looks a lot brighter on your side of town
Tell me how we're gonna get there
Cause it looks like we're going nowhere
Show me the light because the ship that you are sailing
Is going down
Ooooh ah
She slips in the doorway saying that,
"Some things will never change
Do you know what i mean?"
(Ooooh ah)
Every line that cracks her pretty face
Is so much other pain
But is she really to blame?
Oh, a little more sunshine when we're down
It looks a lot brighter on your side of town
Tell me how we're gonna get there
Cause it looks like we're going nowhere
Show me the light because the ship that you are sailing
Is going down
Ooooh ah
A little more sunshine when we're down
It looks a lot brighter on your side of town
Tell me how we're gonna get there
Cause it looks like we're going nowhere
Show me the light because the ship that you are sailing
Is going down
