[Verse 1]
If you run away and hide
It'd be harder to decide
For you only have to try
Somehow you'll find your way
[Verse 2]
Don't give in
Start out again
If you look into your hearts
You'll find the sunlight (Sunlight)
[Chorus]
The Sunlight! the Sunlight!
The Sunlight! (Sunlight) The Sunlight!
[Verse 3]
If you never care to see
Who the someone is gon' be
Then you'll never get to be
The smile that warms the sun
(Ad lib)
You can have it if you want it
Wow Baby
You can have it if you want it
You can have it if you want it
You can have it if you want it
Walk into the sunlight!
Walk into the sunlight!
Walk into the sunlight!
Walk into the sunlight!
[Verse 1]
If you run away and hide
It'd be harder to decide
For you only have to try
Somehow you'll find your way
[Verse 2]
Don't give in
Start out again
If you look into your life
You'll find the sunlight
You will find
You can win
If you try
Don't give in
You will find
You can win
If you try
Don't give in
(The Sunlight!)
Listen Don't give in
Start out, Start out again
Walk into the Sunlight
If you run away and hide
It'd be harder to decide
For you only have to try
Somehow you'll find your way
[Verse 2]
Don't give in
Start out again
If you look into your hearts
You'll find the sunlight (Sunlight)
[Chorus]
The Sunlight! the Sunlight!
The Sunlight! (Sunlight) The Sunlight!
[Verse 3]
If you never care to see
Who the someone is gon' be
Then you'll never get to be
The smile that warms the sun
(Ad lib)
You can have it if you want it
Wow Baby
You can have it if you want it
You can have it if you want it
You can have it if you want it
Walk into the sunlight!
Walk into the sunlight!
Walk into the sunlight!
Walk into the sunlight!

You'll find the sunlight
You will find
You can win
If you try
Don't give in
You will find
You can win
If you try
Don't give in
(The Sunlight!)
Listen Don't give in
Start out, Start out again
