[Instrumental]

[Verse 1: Frankie Beverly]
Remember when you first found love how you felt so good
Kind that last forever more so you thought it would
Suddenly the things you see got you hurt so bad, so bad
How come the things that makes us happy makes us sad?
It seems to me

[Chorus: Frankie Beverly]
Joy and pain are like sunshine and rain
Joy and pain are like sunshine and rain, woo

[Bridge: Frankie Beverly]
Love can be bitter, love can be sweet
Sometimes devotion, and sometimes deceit
The ones that you care for give you so much pain
Oh, but it's alright, they're both one in the same

[Verse 2: Frankie Beverly]
Listen
Don't it seem we go through life going up and down
Seems the things that turn you on turn you around
Always hurting each other
(If it ain't one thing it's another)
When the world is down on you, love's somewhere around
And I want you to know that joy

[Chorus: Frankie Beverly]
Joy and pain are like sunshine and rain
Joy and pain are like sunshine and rain
Joy and pain are like sunshine and rain (One more time)
Joy and pain are like sunshine and rain

[Bridge: Frankie Beverly]
Over and over you can be sure
There will be sorrow but you will endure (You will endure)
Where there's a flower, there's the sun and the rain
Oh, but it's wonderful, they're both one in the same

[Chorus: Frankie Beverly]
Joy and pain are like sunshine and rain
Joy and pain are like sunshine and rain
(Do it one more time)
Joy and pain are like sunshine and rain
(Up and down and all around that goes)
Joy and pain are like sunshine and rain
Joy and pain are like sunshine and rain
