empty arms
and half a soul to go
and all i wanted
was you here next to me
a little sunshine sympathy
now everybody knows
that i been hanging down so low
cuz now i feel it all
soon i'll be feeling out so cold
wondering will you call?
and now i'm feeling high
soon i'll be feeling left for dead
sometimes someone's saying "yes"
changes what you meant
and all i wanted
was just to hold you close
a little sunshine
just to butter my toast
and your love next to mine
i have to let you know
that we were meant to be just right
heaven sent, not sympathized
but everybody's lied
and now i'm feeling high
now i'm feeling left so dead
kicking up the dust in bed
wondering, i guess
sunshine
sunshine (it's all i wanted)
sunshine
and some tea
and your love (it's all i wanted)
your love (it's all i wanted)
your love
next to mine
i have to let you know
i had to let you go
so i could see my life
fade from your eyes
and to my surprise
that's what i wanted
that's all i wanted
that's what i wanted
me and you
sunshine (it's all i wanted)
sunshine (it's all i wanted)
sunshine
and some tea
that's all i wanted
that's all i wanted
that's all i wanted
that's all i wanted
