The Shadow Proves the Sunshine

"The Shadow Proves the Sunshine" is the fourth track on Switchfoot's fifth album,.

Lyrics
Sunshine, won’t you be my mother Sunshine, come and help me sing My heart is darker than these oceans My heart is frozen underneath

We are crooked souls trying to stay up straight, Dry eyes in the pouring rain well The shadow proves the sunshine The shadow proves the sunshine

Two scared little runaways Hold fast till the break of daylight when The shadow proves the sunshine

Oh Lord, why did you forsake me? Oh Lord, don’t be far away, away Storm clouds gathering beside me Please Lord, don’t look the other way I’m a crooked soul trying to stay up straight

Shine on me, Let my shadows prove the sunshine
