lyrics

Can’t Keep Sunshine On A Shelf
(c) 2013, Dean G Wolfe

there’s something about the way you smile
there’s something about the way you are
Maybe I’ve been lost for quite a while
One long lonely night without a star

If I keep you to myself
you’re not there, you’re not there
Can’t keep sunshine on a shelf
it’s everywhere, everywhere

There’s something about the way you love me
helps me recognize i need to grow
though I've barely won a single trophy
Now I radiate the winning glow

Left my childish ways behind
Its all brand new, all brand new
Happiness seemed hard to find
but it finds you, it finds you

If I keep you to myself
you’re not there, you’re not there
Can’t keep sunshine on a shelf
it’s everywhere, everywhere
