Sounds of laughter, here comes sunshine

Smiling faces all around

They possess you, bless you, sunshine

Now you can never let them down

I say sunshine

Sunshine, sunshine, is that a cloud across your smile

Or did you dream again last night?

It's best you rest inside a while

As blue doesn't seem to suit you right

Things ain't what they used to be

I say pain and rain, misery

Illness in the family

And sunshine means a lot to me

I say sunshine

But could it be sunshine is drifting with midnight

And lonely when everyone's gone?

Blue crystal spirits and gardens in moonlight

Leave weak, alone and bleak, all quiet and grey by dawn

Sunshine, sunshine rising too late to chase the cold

And failing to change the frost to dew

She's trading her mood of yellow gold

For frostbitten shades of silver-blue

Friends and lovers past and gone, Lord

And no one waiting further on

I'm running short of things to be

And sunshine means quite a lot to me

I say sunshine

Whoa sunshine
