When you can't find the light
That guides you through a cloudy day
When the stars ain't shinin' bright
And you feel like you've lost your way

When the candle lights of home
Burn so very far away
Well you got to let your soul shine
Just like my daddy used to say

He used to say soulshine
It's better than sunshine
It's better than moonshine
Damn sure better than rain

Well now people don't mind
We all get this way sometimes
Got to let your soul shine
Shine 'til the break of day

I grew up thinkin' I had it made
Gonna make it on my own
But life can take the strongest man
And make him feel so alone

Now sometimes I feel a cold wind
Blowin' through my achin' bones
I think back to what my daddy said
He said 'Boy it's the darkest before the dawn'
