Sunday Morning Sunshine
Words and Music by Harry Chapin
I came into town
With a knapsack on my shoulder
And a pocketfull of stories
That I just had to tell
You know I've knocked around a bit
And I've had my share of small town glories
It's time to hit the city
And that crazy carousel
I've been feelin' sorry for myself
But you know I was only lonely
Like everybody else
Until you brought your Sunday morning sunshine
Here into my Monday morning rain
You taught me happiness just one time
It keeps on coming back again
These streets were never highways
I had not know the sky above
These days were never my days
For I had not known your love
It's funny how a city
Can put on a different face
When it holds the one you care for
It becomes a differnt place
And I never felt so far from alone
Oh baby, you brought me halfway home
Oh baby, you brought me halfway home
You brought your Sunday morning sunshine
Here into my Monday morning rain
You taught me happiness just one time
It keeps on coming back again, and again, and again...
