Sunshine After the Rain Lyrics

Everywhere I go
I see a face we used to know
I pass a place we used to go
When you were mine

Since you went away
(Since you went away)
My hearts not free
It keeps on raining down on me
Will there be a day when the sun will shine?

I want to see the sunshine after the rain
I want to see bluebirds flying over the mountains again
Oh, where is the silver lining shining at the rainbow's end?

When I hear your name
I start to cry
Each day's the same since your goodbye
It's like a game, forgetting you

Every night I pray
(Every night I pray)
Tomorrow brings a sunny day
And happy things
Just like the way it used to be
For you and me

Everywhere I go
I see a face we used to know
I pass a place we used to go
When you were mine

When I hear your name
I start to cry
Each day's the same since your goodbye
It's like a game, forgetting you

Since you went away
(Since you went away)
My hearts not free
It keeps on raining down on me
Will there be a day when the sun will shine?

I want to see the sunshine after the rain
I want to see bluebirds flying over the mountains again
Oh, where is the silver lining shining at the rainbow's end?

When I hear your name
I start to cry
Each day's the same since your goodbye
It's like a game, forgetting you

I wanna see bluebirds flying over the mountains again
Oh, where is the silver lining shining at the rainbow's end?

Elkie Brooks (born Elaine Bookbinder on 25 February 1945, Broughton, Salford, England) is an English singer, formerly a vocalist with Vinegar Joe, and later a solo artist.

A professional singer since she was fifteen, Brooks' début, a cover of Etta James's "Something's Got A Hold On Me", was released on Decca in 1964. Later she became the vocalist with a British 12-piece Stax-influenced, jazz-rock fusion band called Dada that released one, eponymous, album in 1970.

Brooks, along with guitarist Pete Gage, singer Robert Palmer and bassist Steve York formed Vinegar Joe in 1971, adding keyboard player Dave Thompson. The band was without a drummer; Conrad Isidore and Rob Tait drummed on the first album, released in 1972.

In 1974, after three albums Vinegar Joe split and Brooks went solo. After a time in the US as backing singer with the American southern boogie band Wet Willie, she returned to England. Her first solo album on A&M records was Rich Man's Woman (1975). Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
