I Was Made for Sunny Days

I went to the market,

Though it was threatening rain.

I was late to the station,

swore I'd missed that train.

And the streets filled with umbrellas

and we all looked the same.

But I'm the one whose waiting

'till the sun comes out again.

I say, I was made for sunny days.

I made due with gray, but I didn't stay.

I was made for sunny days,

and I was made for you.

Found the book you gave me,

when we were first in bloom;

when I thought that you might save me

from the dark side of the moon.

Instead we both went walking

to the shadows and the gloom,

and we never did stop talking;

you still light up the room.

I say, I was made for sunny days.

I made due with gray, but I didn't stay.

I was made for sunny days,

and I was made for you.

Ooo ooo-oo-oo the nights are longer.

Ooo ooo-oo-oo you make me stronger.

And the late light lingers on the grass.

And the nights are dark but then they pass.

They don't seem so deep.

I'm still losing sleep, but I don't mind,

no, I don't mind.

I got you a winter jacket

that our baby wears around,

and we chase him through the springtime

when the sleeves drag on the ground.

And every hour we're working,

and work and play are bound.

And every day is Sunday,

'cause the sun comes dancing down.

I say, I was made for sunny days.

I made due with gray, but I didn't stay.

I was made for sunny days,

and I was made for you.

I was made for sunny days.

I made due with gray, but I didn't stay.

I was made for sunny days,

and I was made for you.

I was made for sunny days,

and I was made for you.
