Default troubleshooting --- no electrical current

Here's the scenario:
The bathroom light does not work. The problem must be a blown fuse, the
light switch, or the florescent light fixture. Upon a closer look. I
found both the circuit breaker and light switch to be okay. I also
discovered that there's no electrical current coming from the 2 wires
that are connected to the switch. So what do you think is the problem
is?

How many wires are in the box that the switch is mounted in?

As others have said, probably GFCI tripped...
