Sunshine
Gentleman Lyrics

There's a whisper on the wind
I can feel it under my skin
Let the grey skies know
That even in the rain we'll be sliding down the rainbow

Cause we've been waiting for so long
I see it coming from over the horizon
Feel it pulling me so strong
Open up the door and I'm gone

Cause it's a sunshine revolution
And it's a one-time only connection
Cause it's a sunshine revolution
And it's a one-time only connection
Dancing on a sunny afternoon

No it can't be too long
Til were together singing to the same song
Feel the pressure let go
No need to worry, just move into the flow

Cause we've been waiting for so long
I see it coming from over the horizon
Feel it pulling me so strong
Open up the door and I'm gone

Cause it's a sunshine revolution
And it's a one-time only connection
Cause it's a sunshine revolution
And it's a one-time only connection
Dancing on a sunny afternoon
