You say what you say

And pray that one day

You'll be seen between the shadows

Now, that's a waste of your pain

Living your life like a saint

When it don't, no, it don't even matter

Even saints

Make their mistakes

Letting their dreams fall and break

Oh, it feels like living in sunshine

With the shades pulled down

Now I want you to see

How good life can be

You can turn it around

Better your life with the good times found

People will always take the long way around

Before you know it you'll be lost and found

Living in the sunshine with the shades pulled down

People will always take the long way around

I'm not afraid of pride

When it's for the right side

Don't betray what I believe in

Stand where you must stand

And I'll believe when I can

Because I'm telling you now

I've been where you're living

People will always take the long way around

Before you know it you'll be lost and found

Living in the sunshine with the shades pulled down

People will always take the long way around

Will tomorrow keep it´s promise

No one here can say

The past is all behind us

All we have is today

And all we have is today

People will always take the long way around

Before you know it you'll be lost and found

Living in the sunshine with the shades pulled down

People will always take the long way around

People will always take the long way around

Before you know it you'll be lost and found

Living in the sunshine with the shades pulled down

People will always take the long way around
