In my humble opinion, it definitely is uplifting in the sense that the song portrays that very specific feeling when you've made peace with a situation. She's out on the town, sun kissing her skin and wind blowing her hair. She runs into his Mom and gives her a genuine smile and wave. But continues on her way. She's healed. THATS UPLIFTING. Cause although it may be hard for a long time, eventually the sun will rise.
