I've seen the rain pouring down The sky was gray with a speck of blue Peek through a hole in the clouds The sun was screaming, "Hey, you!" As you ramble through your sorrow Seem like everything come out wrong I'm living in yesterdays tomorrows I know something's helping me along I'll take a melody And see what I can do about it I'll take a simple C to G And feel brand new about it I understand why the old fishermen Sail along, sail along, sail along Sail along, sail along Someday he'll be gone I hear you talking about your troubles Everybody's got their troubles too You can make them burst like bubbles
If you know just what to do You know I've been called a dreamer Dreams that never come true But I've been called so many things before Tell you what I'm gonna do I'll take a melody And see what I can do about it I'll take a simple C to G And feel brand new about it I understand why the old fishermen Sail along, sail along, sail along Sail along, sail along Someday he'll be gone I'll take a melody And see what I can do about it I'll take a simple C to G And feel brand new about it Shine on, keep on shining Shine on, keep on shining Shine on, keep on shining ...
