Lyrics
sunny day
what a sunny day can do
the berry jam is sweeter, the sky a bluer blue
leaves go heads then tails on this breezy afternoon
sunny sunny day don?t go away too soon
high atop the hill the concrete disappears
now i?m lost in a mirage and can feel it in my ears
and my hair, and my feet, are getting warmer still
i don?t know where we?re going, but we?re gonna get our fill
and the streetlamps look so silly standing there
without a thing to do, without a thing to say
and the skirts go hither dither, twisty heads
turn and watch the pleats fanning gently in the breeze
what a sunny day can do
the berry jam is sweeter the sky a bluer blue
leaves go heads then tails on this breezy afternoon
sunny sunny day don?t go away too soon
sunny day don?t go away
