Françoise Hardy
SUNSHINE
Paroles et musique: Tash Howard, Sandy Alpert, 1969


I remember how it was
We'd walk along the beach
Each sunny day
We held each others hand
As we dreamed of our plans
For a home someday

We'd listen to the ocean's roar
From inside every shell
Well, we had fun
Digging round for clams
Using just our hands
Sometimes finding one

Sunshine, I love you
I always will
Can I be faithful until
We're together once again
Someday?

He once packed a basket for our lunch
And the punch ran out the jar
Got the chicken soaking wet
Got himself all upset
Till I'd kissed away the harm

I would splash the water in his face
Then he'd chase me for a while
Suddenly I'd come and flop
Waiting till he'd pick me up
And we'd start to smile

Sunshine, I love you
I always will
Can I be faithful until
We're together once again
Someday?

But summer days must come and go
And though we wish it so
Time won't wait for sighs
So summer left and so did we
We turned our backs to the sea
And said our sad goodbyes

Winter seemed so long and cold
I watched the hours grow old
And I think of you
Sunshine you're in my heart
All the time we are apart
Hope you're thinking too

Sunshine, I love you
I always will
Can I be faithful until
We're together once again
Someday?

Sunshine, I love you
I always will
Can I be faithful until
We're together once again
Someday?
