Lyrics

Collectin' Sunny Days
Emmanuel Lawrence
Copyright 2008

VERSE 1
Me and my girl
On Saturday, walking everywhere
She shops, takes her time
I got my coffee, not a care
She's buying smiling suns
Every image, shape and size
Honey, why you buying these?
She says, Baby, don't you realize?

CHORUS
I'm collectin' sunny days
I'm collectin' while I can
So much cloudy in the world
Cloudier than I can stand
I'm collectin' sunny days
'Cause they're in such great demand
I'm collectin' sunny days
I'm collectin', collectin' while I can
(Sunny days, sunny days) 2X

VERSE 2
We head for home
Bags full of sunny days
She passes them out
To people along the way
I look at their faces
And understand in a while
She gives away sunny days
And people give back sunny smiles!

REPEAT CHORUS

INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE (Trumpet)

VERSE 3
We get back home
Empty bags by the door
We sit down together
Too tired to do more
Keep yourself a sunny day, dear?
She looks at me and smiles
She says, Baby, you're my sunny day!
She says, Baby, don't you realize?

REPEAT CHORUS

OUTRO
I'm selectin'
I'm collectin' sunny days
Passin' em out
Givin' em away
Sunny, sunny days
(Sunny days, sunny days) 3X
