You were there when the rain wouldn't quitHeld the umbrella, never asked for itSo today I'm pouring something back your wayWatch the whole sky open when I sayLet me put a little light on youI put my sunshine on youFor every time you carried me when I was lowI put my sunshine on youThe kind of love you give is the kind that growsMama's hands and my brother's stubborn faithFriends who showed up at the door at any rateI count the blessings on the log-drum beatEvery name a reason I'm back on my feetI put my sunshine on youFor every time you carried me when I was lowI put my sunshine on youThe kind of love you give is the kind that growsYou never kept a tally of the times you stayedNever sent a bill for the love you madeSo I'm singing it loud where the whole world can hearYou been my warm weather every cold yearWho held you up? You didWho filled your cup? You didWho brought the light? You didSunshine on you tonightI put my sunshine on youFor every time you carried me when I was lowI put my sunshine on youThe kind of love you give is the kind that growsThank you, thank you, more than I can showThank you, thank you, this one's for you, you knowI put my sunshine on you---
