I Can See Clearly Now

1993. Summer. It was becoming increasingly clear that I am a lesbian.

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) sunshiny day.
It’s gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day.

I think I can make it now; the pain is gone.
All of the bad feelings have disappeared.
Here is that rainbow I’ve been praying for.
It’s gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day.

Look all around, there’s nothing but blue skies.
Look straight ahead, there’s nothing 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) sunshiny day.

It’s gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day.
It’s going to be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day.
Oh, what a bright (bright) sunshiny day.

Oh, yeah, yeah.
