But in the sun you’ve to play the game
When you cry in winter time
You can’t pretend, it’s nothing but the rain
How many times I’ve seen
Tears coming from your blue eyes
Rain and tears all the same
But in the sun you’ve got to play the game
Give an answer of love I need an answer of love

But in your heart you feel the rain the waves
Rain and tears both for shown
For in my heart there’ll never be a sun
Rain and tears all the same
But in the sun you’ve play the game

Outdoors
Song by: Jason Mraz
All day I’ve been inside
And I’ve got the feeling
I’m trapped between the walls
And underneath the ceiling
I feel a bit off track
And I’m trying to get back
Back in the cool, cool air where the sun is shinning
Nothing’s going to stop me
It’s all in the timing
It’s finally again my turn
It’s time to return
‘Cause I won’t stay inside no more
No more
I can’t wait to go
Outdoors
Well open up your door and be like me
Open up your door and then breathe free
And look at all the beauty you’ll feel
Loved, loved, loved, loved
Listen to the music of the wind and the brides sing
We’re just one big family
And all of nature deserves to be
Loved, loved, loved, loved,
Loved
So, I won’t stay inside no more
No more
It can’t wait, I’m sure
There’s need to run and hide
Let’s go explore
It feels so great let’s go outdoors
(Don’t cha do)
Everyone come on
come on out there
where the air is fresh and clear
So, I won’t stay inside no more
No more
It cannot wait
Let’s go out doors
Well, open up your door and be like me
Open up your door and then breathe free
And look at all the beauty and you’ll find
The earth and the sky is yours
So please go, there’s no need,
There’s no need to hide inside
Let’s go explore
This will, this will feel so great
Let’s go outdoors
