Sunshine (Clean Version) Lyrics
Jay Z Feat. Babyface & Foxy Brown
Lyrics
All I gotta do, get it through to you
You take my hand and let me lead you away
Same old words again, he was just a friend
That's what you told me, but you're my one and only
If I tell you something now
I ask myself just how
You came into my world
Gotta keep on loving you
So let the sunshine wherever you are
It really doesn't matter how long, how far
I took my time and I realized
You're the only thing that matters now in my life
Just another song while the beat goes on
You keep on moving and I'll bring you the groove
I guess it's just the way, nothing left to say
Hard day, everyday, DJ take me away
If I tell you something now
I ask myself just how
You came into my world
Gotta keep on loving you
So let the sunshine wherever you are
(Sunshine)
It really doesn't matter how long how far
(How far?)
I took my time and I realized
You're the only thing that matters now in my life
Stop, look, check, and listen
I freaks the funk that will keep you wishing
You're a superstar, no matter who you are
You gotta keep ya dreams
Because they're never too far
Now, can you see what I'm trying to do?
Realize that it's never too late now
Can you feel what I'm trying to say?
And the beat goes on and on and on
Until the break of dawn
If I tell you something now
I ask myself just how
You came into my world
Gotta keep on loving you
So let the sunshine wherever you are
(Sunshine)
It really doesn't matter how long how far
(How far?)
I took my time and I realized
You're the only thing that matters now in my life
So let the sunshine wherever you are
(Sunshine)
It really doesn't matter how long how far
I took my time and I realized
(How far?)
You're the only thing that matters now in my life
So let the sunshine wherever you are
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It really doesn't matter how long how far
(Yeah, how far?)
I took my time and I realized
(Yeah)
You're the only thing that matters now in my life
(Yeah)
