Description
Sometimes the night seems endless - thoughts weigh heavily, shoulders slump, and it feels like there are judges on all sides whispering, ‘Give up.’ But there is something stubbornly bright in this song, like an alarm clock that doesn't ask if you're ready - it just rings because the sun will rise anyway.
The voice pulls you by the hand, promising that it's easier to hold on together, even if there's a storm inside. And this simple mantra, ‘yes, it will rise,’ suddenly sounds more convincing than all the philosophical treatises.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Show me all your burdens, and I will show you mine.
Tell me how you're hurting in the middle of the night.
'Cause you're not the only one, no, no.
You're not the only one who's thought about giving in, who's thought about giving up.
Oh, the sun's gonna rise in the morning. Yes, it will. Oh, yes, it will.
Oh, the sun's gonna shine in the morning. Yes, it will. Oh, yes, it will.
When no one understands you, but there's a judge on every side.
And isn't love supposed to be humble and be kind?
'Cause you're not the only one, no, no.
You're not the only one who's thought about giving in, who's thought about giving up.
Oh, the sun's gonna rise in the morning. Yes, it will. Oh, yes, it will.
Oh, the sun's gonna shine in the morning. Yes, it will. Oh, yes, it will.
I know it's hard to believe right now. The midnight hour is the turnaround.
Oh, the sun's gonna rise in the morning. Yes, it will. Oh, yes, it will.
So keep holding on together, together.
Everyone together, together, mm.
Keep holding on together, together, yeah.
Oh, everyone, everyone together, together, yeah.
Keep holding on, keep holding on, keep holding on together.
Oh, the sun's gonna rise in the morning. Yes, it will. Oh, yes, it will.
Oh, the sun's gonna shine in the morning. Yes, it will. Oh, yes, it will.
I know it's hard to believe right now. The midnight hour is the turnaround.
Oh, the sun's gonna rise in the morning. Yes, it will. Oh, yes, it will.
Oh, the sun's gonna rise in the morning. Yes, it will.
Oh, yes, it will.
