Lyrics[]

Verse 1
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high

Chorus
If I had a day that I could give you
I would give a day sure to make you smile

Verse 2
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine almost always makes me high

Chorus
If I had a day that I could give you
I would give to you a day just like today
Ah, and if I had a song I could sing for you
I would sing a song to make you feel this way

Bridge
Sunshine
Ooh, sunshine
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
(Makes me, sunshine)
Sunshine almost always makes me high
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)

Outro
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine almost always makes me high
