Labelle - When The Sunshine Comes Shining Through Songtexte

Down here it's raining, with clouds on the way,
Up there the sunbeams are shining all day.

I gotta keep on climbing,
'til I reach the top,
ain't got time to stop.
So follow me,
oh, why don't you follow me?

Oh, then, when the sun comes shining through,
and I'll look down on you,
to take my hand.
The world will greet us there,
together we can share,
the promised land.

Somewhere a rainbow is waiting for me,
somewhere a ladder to help me to see.

I gotta keep on climbing,
'til I reach the top,
ain't got time to stop.
So follow me,
oh, why don't you follow me?

Oh, then, when the sun comes shining through,
and I'll look for you,
to take me away.
The world will greet us there,
together we can share,
the brand new day.

No, see the sun come shining through,
it's shining down on you,
to take you away.

And if you'll stand by me,
come on people we will see,
a brand new day.

Oh, higher and higher, soon I'll be free,
now for the first time my eyes can see.

I gotta keep on climbing,
'til I reach the top,
ain't got time to stop.
So follow me,
oh, why don't you follow me?

Oh, then, when the sun comes shining through,
and I'll look down on you,
to take my hand.
The world will greet us there,
together we can share,
the promised land.

Ain't got time to stop,
'til we reach the top.
Ain't got time to stop,
'til we reach the top.

Climbing, climbing...

Ain't got time to stop,
'til we reach the top.
Ain't got time to stop,
'til we reach the top.
