Lyrics
sun comes in like joshua
with a ramshorn blast of light
amazing sight
and quite suddenly we are
on the sunny side of night
and it's alright
another day another dawn
o joshua play that horn
cos it's begun
here comes the sun
o zephyrs sweep the clouds away
the daylight hours have come
here comes the sun
run to the door and seize the day
grab the morning star and run
the day's begun
