John Martyn - Sunshine’s Better lyrics
[John Martyn - Sunshine’s Better lyrics]
If I call you sugar, if you call me honey
Does this mean you've got a hand in my fate
If you take my money, if I take your liberty
Does it mean it's all down to love and hate
If you open doors for me
I'll have the manners to respond
I'll treat you like mine ah babe, ah baby
Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better when you make it shine
The sun shines better
Sunshine's better on the other side
The other side of the hill
The sun shines better
If I call you lover and if you call me dad
Does it mean that we're in love
If you give me all your hate
Open up the garden gate
Does that mean we're in love
Tell me sugar, call me honey
Come on darling, I'll just take all my money
We can run away naked with
The flames of desire
Running through water like birds of a feather
Like birds of a feather
I tell you
Sunshine's better on the other side
The other side of the stream
Let's run in tonight, let's run in tonight
The sunshine's better on the other
Side of the flames
Come on darling, let's jump in tonight
Let's jump in tonight
Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better every time you make
That smile of yours reappear
You chortle, chuckle, giggle, mumble and
Swing like a bitch
'Til the day is done, that's what you do
You can giggle and laugh, make yourself happy
'Til the day is done, remember
Sunshine's better on the other side
Other side of the hill
We're going to get there, come on, come on
Skinny dip, skinny dip, skinny dip
Skinny dip skinny dipping around the scene
Way down by the river
Sunshine's better on the other side
They tell me that the sunshine's
Better on the other side
Better than this side, you know
The sunshine's better over there
Better over there, better over there
Sunshine's better
Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better
Sunshine's better on the other side
The other side of the hill
Lord, you know where the grass is green
Oh lord, greener than you've ever seen
Sunshine's better on the other side
On the other side
Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better
Don't you dare to go and hide from me now
If I call you sugar
Would you dare to call me honey?
If I tell you that I love you
Would you take all my money
We could run naked, naked through the fire
Through the water, through the ice
Through the sun
Through the jungle, through the desert sands
On the road, down and around the swings
Roundabouts
Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better than you've ever seen
Before in your life
I'm telling you how I know i've been there
I've been there and gone
Been there, been there and gone been there
Does this mean you've got a hand in my fate
If you take my money, if I take your liberty
Does it mean it's all down to love and hate
If you open doors for me
I'll have the manners to respond
I'll treat you like mine ah babe, ah baby
Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better when you make it shine
The sun shines better
Sunshine's better on the other side
The other side of the hill
The sun shines better
If I call you lover and if you call me dad
Does it mean that we're in love
If you give me all your hate
Open up the garden gate
Does that mean we're in love
Tell me sugar, call me honey
Come on darling, I'll just take all my money
We can run away naked with
The flames of desire
Running through water like birds of a feather
Like birds of a feather
I tell you
Sunshine's better on the other side
The other side of the stream
Let's run in tonight, let's run in tonight
The sunshine's better on the other
Side of the flames
Come on darling, let's jump in tonight
Let's jump in tonight
Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better every time you make
That smile of yours reappear
You chortle, chuckle, giggle, mumble and
Swing like a bitch
'Til the day is done, that's what you do
You can giggle and laugh, make yourself happy
'Til the day is done, remember
Sunshine's better on the other side
Other side of the hill
We're going to get there, come on, come on
Skinny dip, skinny dip, skinny dip
Skinny dip skinny dipping around the scene
Way down by the river
Sunshine's better on the other side
They tell me that the sunshine's
Better on the other side
Better than this side, you know
The sunshine's better over there
Better over there, better over there
Sunshine's better
Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better
Sunshine's better on the other side
The other side of the hill
Lord, you know where the grass is green
Oh lord, greener than you've ever seen
Sunshine's better on the other side
On the other side
Sunshine's better on the other side
Sunshine's better
Don't you dare to go and hide from me now
If I call you sugar
Would you dare to call me honey?
If I tell you that I love you

Sunshine's better than you've ever seen

Been there, been there and gone been there
