as recorded by Kenny Rogers
Sunshine, you may find my window,
But you won't find me!
Sunshine, I've got my friend the darkness here
Tonight to hide me.
Sunshine, as far as I'm concerned,
I'm where I wanna be,
But sunshine, as far as you're concerned,
Don't be concerned for me!
'Cause she doesn't love me, oh, anymore,
She doesn't want me, Lord,
She doesn't need me anymore,
She grew tired of chasing rainbows.
But I love her true, and God you know I tried,
And I guess she was right,
'Cause I'm at the end,
I found the path but there's no gold inside!
So sunshine, can't you see I'm not alone?
Don't bother me!
Sunshine, pick up your dawn,
Move on down the street.
Sunshine, as far as I'm concerned,
I'm where I wanna be!
Sunshine, as far as you're concerned,
Don't be concerned for me!
