Lyrics
Today is just another day.
It's gonna' happen anyway.
Why not let it happen on it's own?
All I need's a change of pace.
The sunlight shining on my face.
My minds unplugged, and so's my telephone.
Kicking back in my easy chair,
Watching the clouds a'drifting by.
It's a sunny day for a winter day.
And the sun is almost smiling in the sky.
[chorus]
And the sun is almost smiling in the sky.
And the sun is almost smiling in the sky.
