Sunshine Parade

from Hard Frost by Annie Keating

/

lyrics

You can stay in your house and i can stay in mine
Or we could get out and have a real good time
Trouble can find me, I don’t mind
Trouble is just a friend of mine

Sticks and stones never broke my bones
In the eye of the storm i’m right at home
I won’t cry no tears for you
I got too much good living to do
I can run fast but I won’t hide cause honey I’m not the hiding kind
Show me some love make me believe
butterflies in my chest light up my mind

CHORUS
There’s no rain on this parade / yeah not today babe not today
You can lie down in the shade / but sunshine’s what i really crave
There’ll be no rain now on this sunshine parade (Repeat)

I like my coffee strong and sweet
I like to ride the train down to Brighton Beach
Where the ocean and the city meet
I’m feeling salty and a little bit sweet
I could be sad or we could paint the town red
’d rather be dancing than stuck in bed
I’m gonna find the love where I can
butterflies dancing in my head

CHORUS
There’s no rain on this parade / yeah not today babe not today
You can lie down in the shade / but sunshine’s what i really crave
There’ll be no rain now on this sunshine parade (Repeat)

Grass won’t grow beneath these feet
My soles are gonna dance off the concrete
I’ve got a light that’s burning bright
Let's paint the town red tonight

CHORUS
There’s no rain on this parade / yeah not today babe not today
You can lie down in the shade / but sunshine’s what i really crave
There’ll be no rain now on this sunshine parade (Repeat)

Lucinda Williams. John Prine. Bob Dylan. Allison Krauss. Willie Nelson, Bonnie Raitt. Emmylou Harris - A short list of the musicians Keating has been compared to. She writes and sings like a woman who knows that heartache is the price of hope, and she can make us believe -- in that way that only the best artists can -- that all of it is worth the cost. ... more
