Rise and Shine

Lyrics from Sofia the First: Once Upon a Princess

I used to go to sleep at night
So thankful for my simple life
Up at all the stars I would be gazing
An ordinary girl it seems
But never in my wildest dreams
Could I imagine something so amazing

'Cause then in just an instant
All of that changed
And my whole life was rearranged

It's time to rise and shine
Wake up and make the day mine
In this brand new world
I'm at the starting line
But I know deep down that it will all be fine
'Cause I'm gonna rise
And shine

And suddenly out of the blue
I woke up to a dream come true
But if it's just a dream then please don't wake me
To the castle, swept away
Became a princess in a day
And now I'm wondering where this road may take me

It happened in an instant
Everything changed
Now my whole life is rearranged

It's time to rise and shine
Wake up and make the day mine
In this brand new world
I'm at the starting line
But I know deep down that it will all be fine
'Cause I'm gonna rise

So much to learn
So much to be
And I can't wait to find the key

It's time to rise
(Rise and shine)
It's a brand new world
And I'm at the starting line
But I know deep down that it will all be fine
'Cause I'm gonna rise
Right before their eyes

I'm gonna rise
(Rise)
And shine
(And shine)
Rise and shine
