The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Baby do you know what you did today,

Baby do you know what you took away,

You took the blue out of the sky,

My whole life changed when you said goodbye,

An' I keep crying, crying.

Ooooh baby,

Ooooh baby,

I wish I never saw the sunshine,

I wish I never saw the sunshine,

An' if I never saw the sunshine bay,

Then maybe I wouldn't mind the rain.

Every day is just like the day before,

All alone a million miles from shore,

All of my dreams I dreamed with you,

Now they will die and never come true,

An' I keep crying, crying.

Ooooh baby,

Ooooh baby,

I wish I never saw the sunshine,

I wish I never saw the sunshine,

An' if I never saw the sunshine bay,

Then maybe I wouldn't mind the rain.

Ooooh this pain,

And I know there would not be,

This cloud that's over me,

Everywhere I go.

Ooooh baby,

Ooooh baby,

I wish I never saw the sunshine,

I wish I never saw the sunshine,

An' if I never saw the sunshine bay,

Then maybe I wouldn't mind the rain.

Ooooh this pain,

I wouldn't mind the rain,

There wouldn't be this pain,

I wouldn't mind the rain,

I wouldn't mind the rain
