about

I wrote this tune in Nashville with the great Kris Bergsnes (Tim McGraw, Wynonna Judd). It's about having high hopes for something (or someone), and the disappointment that comes when it doesn’t work out like you wanted it to. Kind of like most of 2020.

lyrics

Oh where is that sunshine you promised me
The cold hard rain is pouring at my feet
And I’m running out of reasons to believe
Where is that sunshine you promised me

The screen door is broken
The flies are coming in
Dishes are dirty
You been drinking again

Said you were changing
But look at you now
It’s the same old storm
And the same old clouds

You pushed your way in, now you’re pushing me out
Tell me

Where is that sunshine you promised me
The cold hard rain is pouring at my feet
And I’m running out of reasons to believe
Where is that sunshine you promised me

You made a wine out of water
And I drank every drop
I know how it feels
When you just can’t stop

I knew you were trouble
When I looked in your eyes
But your kind of trouble
Can leave a girl blind

So I’ll stay in the dark, just for one more night
Tell me

Where is that sunshine you promised me
The cold hard rain is pouring at my feet
And I’m running out of reasons to believe
Where is that sunshine you promised me
