Lyrics
[Verse]
In Sunshine Valley, where the skies are always blue
There's a boy who wakes up every day feeling so brand new (ooh-yeah)
The birds are singing, the flowers are in bloom
He's got nowhere to be, no one to please, just endless room
[Verse 2]
He dances with the wind, he laughs with the trees
He's caught in a moment of pure serenity (ooh-yeah)
The grass beneath his feet, the sun upon his face
He wonders why he's all alone, in this magical place
[Chorus]
Sunshine Valley, where dreams come alive
He's living in a world where time's on his side
Sunshine Valley, with no worries or fears
But sometimes he wonders, why is he the only one here (ooh-yeah)
[Verse 3]
But as the days go by, they all start to feel the same
No rain to wash away the dust, no darkness to reclaim (ooh-yeah)
He waits for someone to knock upon his door
But no footsteps approach, he's left wondering more and more
[Interlude]
[Bridge]
In a sterile room, a psychiatrist explains
To the family gathered, the prognosis with no gains
Since the stroke took hold, his mind's locked away
In a world of his own, where he might forever stay
[Chorus]
Sunshine Valley, where dreams come alive
He's living in a world where time's on his side
Sunshine Valley, with no worries or fears
But sometimes he wonders, why is he the only one here (ooh-yeah)
Sunshine Valley, with no worries or fears
But sometimes he wonders, why is he the only one here (ooh-yeah)
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Sunshine Valley, where illusions thrive
He's living in a dream a prison of the mind
Sunshine Valley, an eternal frontier
It's really no wonder, why he's the only one here (ooh-yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
[Background voices speaking]
Will he ever come back?
Can he at least hear us?
[Chorus]
Sunshine Shine Valley, where the illusion is the lie
He's living in a dream, in a prison of the mind
Sunshine shine Valley, an eternal frontier
It's really no wonder, why he's the only one here (ooh-yeah)
[Fade out]
