about

SUNLIGHT is an ode to positivism. Sometimes, hearing the words "cheer up", can be extra hard when the sun feels far away. By celebrating beautiful tiny rays of sunlight you can feel a little happiness every day. Sunlight is also about not wanting to do everything alone. Help yourself by clinging onto the little sparks of joy around you that can actually help. More rays will follow. The song builds up towards an epic end, illustrating solidarity and clarity.

lyrics

SUNLIGHT - d'Z & Vivian Veronique

We’re still standing still
Waiting for that moment to come back
Let’s break down those walls
And build our home again
Never again, will the darkness conquer our world
Let’s break down those walls
And let kindness always win

Don’t be sad and blue
Just let the sunlight in
Together we’ll make it through
May a new day begin

Livin’ life while judging all others
Ain’t no way to improve yourself
You should be lovin’ all sisters and brothers
And be true to who you are
‘Cause if you can’t love yourself
How in the hell you gon' love someone else?
Building more walls day by day, day by day
While we should be tearing them down

Don’t be sad and blue
Just let the sunlight in
Together we’ll make it through
May a new day begin
Don’t be sad and blue
Just let the sunlight in
Together we’ll make it through
May a new day begin

Oh, and when you’re down and out
Just remember that I will always be there
Spread your love like a little gift
We’re all in this together
And the good will always win

So if you’re feeling blue... let it all go!
May a new day begin

Don’t be sad and blue
Just let the sunlight in
Together we’ll make it through
May a new day begin
Don’t be sad and blue
Just let the sunlight in
Together we’ll make it through
May a new day begin
Don’t be sad and blue
Just let the sunlight in
Together we’ll make it through
May a new day begin
