I Can See Clearly Now (Johnny Nash) - STING 21306   (Thorsten Geppert)  

 

(Opener and Middle Break): CIRCLE LEFT

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone
ALLEMANDE the corner and DO SA DO your own

ALLEMANDE LEFT and WEAVE THAT RING

Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind

It’s gonna be a bright, bright Sun-Shiny day

 

(Figure): HEADS SQUARE THRU to four hands and go – my corner baby DO SA DO her and go

SWING THRU now and the BOY will TRADE – RUN around the girl BEND THE LINE – FORWARD UP all eight – now

SQUARE THRU go THREE HANDS down and SWING that girl and now you all PROMENADE

It’s gonna be a bright, bright Sun-Shiny day

 

(Closer): SIDES FACE GRAND SQUARE

I think I can make it now, the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
- ALLEMANDE and WEAVE

Here is the rainbow I’ve been prayin’ for
It’s gonna be a bright, bright Sun-Shiny day

 

 

(Tag): SWING that girl around and round It’s gonna be a bright, bright Sun-Shiny day

 

ORIGINAL LYRICS:

 

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 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 Sun-Shiny day

Look all around, there’s nothin’ but blue skies
Look straight ahead, nothin’ but blue skies
