Roberta Flack — I Can See the Sun in Late December

[Intro] I can see the sun I can see the sun [Verse 1] I betcha you can't even see the sun Ah, the sun is shining right before your eyes I betcha you can't even see yourself 'Cause when you're lost Sometimes yourself is hard to find [Chorus] I can see the sun in late December I see forgotten treasures 'neath the sea Tides that defeat identity Washing away the beauty that was in your mind I can hear the sounds you don't remember The sounds of birds and bees in harmony Chords being blown by a gentle breeze Making the perfect melody you left behind [Verse 2] I betcha you can't even see the moon 'Cause in your eyes you only see the darkest side I betcha you can't wish upon a star 'Cause in your life your pride has pushed your dreams aside, hey [Chorus] I can see the sun in late December I see forgotten treasures 'neath the sea Tides that defeat identity Washing away the beauty that was in your mind I can hear the sounds you don't remember The sounds of birds and bees in harmony Chords being blown by a gentle breeze Making the perfect melody you left behind [Refrain] La-da, la-da, la-da, la-da La-da, la-da, la-da-da, la-da [Chorus] I can see the sun in late December I see forgotten treasures 'neath the sea Tides that defeat identity Washing away the beauty that was in your mind I betcha I can see the sun See forgotten treasures 'neath the sea Tides that defeat identity (I can see the sun) Washing away the beauty in your mind I betcha I can hear the sounds Sounds of birds and bees in harmony Chords being blown by a gentle breeze (Sounds you don't remember) [Outro] I can hear the sounds, sounds Sounds you don't remember I can see the sun, sun Sun in late December I betcha I can see the sun See forgotten treasures 'neath the sea Tides that defeat identity (I can see the sun) Washing away the beauty in your mind [Instrumental Break] I can see the sun I can see the sun I can see the sun I can see the sun I can see the sun [Instrumental]
