He’s standing with strangers outside the school gates And waits for a bundle of joy that he make With a woman he loved, she left him until fate Twisted and turned life around
She kept the kid for a child needs the love of a mother Like the blood of a rose needs a lover It’s a role that is honed, a bomb that no one can deny
But it’s hard To forget what he had And pretend that he’s starting again
Lost in the memory Once, it was family Where is the sunshine now?
Dead end of emptiness, it’s in his soul Like puda building a hole in the wall Removing the meanings of things which belong To a life which no longer is his
School bells ring, little hearts sing There’s a stampede of feet to the rhythm of spring They spill out like jelly beans into their hands once again
But it’s hard To forget what he had And pretend that he’s starting again
Lost in the memory Once, it was family Where is the sunshine now?
Lost in the memory Once, it was family Where is the sunshine?
She’s running towards him A life that he’s waited so long to see Her face is in bloom like a cherry tree Happiness wells in his eyes
Born to your carry, my love, he sings I’ll do my best to pretend this Nothing wrong Let’s both sing our song Mmm-mmm And we’ll sing until we’re
Lost in the memory Once, it was family Where is the sunshine now? Now? Now
