"An Ode to Fall", or, "I Can See Clearly Right Now"
Original lyrics
written by Sam Cooke; sung by Johnny Nash; updated by Ray
I can see clearly now, the
addiction’s gone.
Last “one and a half” took it all awayyyy . . .
Gone are the flat spells that had me blind.
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 set wave 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 big sets
I can see
clearly now, the addiction’s gone.
Nothin’ but head-hi is on the way . . .
Gone are the summer crowds that had me blind.
Gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.*
*Decomposed
