Lost Dogs - Sunshine Down lyrics

I marvel as I sip upon my sweet tea I'm popeyed at the sweetness of my sweet peas The blooming of my trees Why does the sun shine down on me? I'm grateful for the greatness of your soft hands And thankful for the cleanness of my pressed pants You part the clouds still I don't see Why does the sun shine down on me? Sometimes I hear, sometimes I listen Most of the time I'm stubborn and indifferent Often I'm sad, knowing what I'm missing And all the time I'm wishing things were all so different Thinking of asking that the end don't come too soon cuz I've got a friend or two Could use a friend like You cuz It's getting cold and now I see Just why the sun shines down on me Upon my friends, down on my daughter A beam of light to walk upon Your water Shine on and bless my mother and my father Praying for me when I could not be bothered If my house goes up in flames give it a dowse, please But never let the flame You lit inside my heart cease I cannot live without the heat From Your sun shining down on me
