Shine on Sunshine
The Zombies featuring Colin Blunstone & Rod Argent Lyrics

The lyrics of The Zombies featuring Colin Blunstone & Rod Argent's song Shine on Sunshine is a beautiful tribute to a woman who brings sunshine and happiness into the singer's life. The first stanza sets the tone of the song, with the singer remembering how the woman reminds him of the breath of summer sun that transforms everything it touches. Her presence turns even the cool daylight into a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The chorus "Shine on sunshine, Chase the clouds away, Shine on sunshine, Into my life each day" is a plea for her to continue bringing the light of the sun into his life, to chase away the darkness and sadness of everyday life.

The second stanza reinforces the picture of the woman as a bringer of joy and light in the singer's life. He sings about how she is the best he has ever seen at drying the tears of the clouds, using beautiful, poetic language to describe her abilities. The following lines acknowledge that she is only human, and sometimes she gets weary like the rest of us. But she still manages to rise above it all and not let it shake her. Here the song takes a turn, to acknowledge that the singer sometimes worries, like any other person. But the love that she brings into his life is so strong that it soon finds a way to make everything better.
