Come On, Sunshine
Liner Notes
@mctown sent me these wonderfully sunshiny lyrics and I had the great pleasure of writing music for them. I wanted to aim for a sort of laidback, easy-going vibe with this one, and definitely had a lot of fun with it. Enjoy! :)

Lyrics
Come On, Sunshine David L Graham mctownmusic@gmail.com
Come on, sunshine..come on, sunshine
You’ve always been a friend of mine
Come on sunshine..come on sunshine
Let’s take a walk down the road of life
You’ve seen my worries and my best
Been there for me with my every test
Oh, I know how I’ve been so very blest
To run round this world as your guest
Come on, sunshine..come on, sunshine
You’ve always been a friend of mine
Come on sunshine..come on sunshine
Let’s take a walk down the road of life
Sure you give that moon a look or two
And show the stars what they must do
But I know from that beginning hue
It’s always been me and you… me and you
Come on, sunshine..come on, sunshine
You’ve always been a friend of mine
Come on sunshine..come on sunshine
Let’s take a walk down the road of life
Yes, you’re the one, my sunny sun
Bright and golden
Always holding
To your path
In that true blue sky
Oh, my sunny sun
You’re the one
My sunny, sunny sun
Comments
This has a great feel to the vocal melody.
LOVE the way you sing that 'come on, sunshine'.
Nice contrast with the crunchy guitar and your crystal clear voice.
That sax is a soft spot for me! love the fall at 1:41 with the harmony!
Oh yeah this just feels great to listen to.
Super feel-good sunny lyrics from @mctown, too. that chorus is so sing-along-able.
This was a joy to listen to
Absolutely love the performance, melody, chunky guitar with those momentary diversions that make you sit up and take notice.
That hard right panned "me and you!" was a winner too!
