A Song For A Sunday.

I Can See Clearly Now.

Lyrics and Vocals: American singer and songwriter, the late John Lester Nash Jr. (1940-2020).

Released in 1972, “I Can See Clearly Now” is the bright, reggae-laced, pop-soul single that became Johnny Nash’s signature recording; written and produced by Nash, it pairs an easy, sun-after-storm groove, with a simple message of resilience, moving from setback and confusion to renewed confidence and perspective.

I Can See Clearly Now.

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone.
I can see all obstacles in my way.
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind,
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright),
Sun-shiny day.
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright),
Sun-shiny day.
I think I can make it now, the pain is gone.
All of the bad feelings have disappeared.
Here is the rainbow I’ve been prayin’ for,
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright),
Sun-shiny day.
Look all around, there’s nothin’ but blue skies.
Look straight ahead, nothin’ but blue skies.
I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way.
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind.
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright),
Sun-shiny day.
It’s gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright),
Sun-shiny day.
Gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright),
Sun-shiny day.
Oh, what a bright (bright), bright (bright),
Sun-shiny day…
