Lyrics
One, two, three, four
It’s raining
But there ain’t a cloud in the sky
Must have been a tear from your eye
Everything will be okay
It’s funny
I thought I felt a sweet summer breeze
Must’ve been you sighing so deep
Don’t worry, we’re gonna find a way
I’m waitin’
Waitin’ on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Yeah, I’m waitin’ on a sunny day
Without you
I’m working with the rain falling down
I’m half a party in a one dog town
I need you to chase these blues away
Without you
I’m a drummer, girl, that can’t keep a beat
Ice cream truck on a deserted street
I hope that you’re coming to stay
I’m waitin’
Waitin’ on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Waitin’ on a sunny day
Hey
Hard times
Baby, well, they come to us all
Sure as the ticking of the clock on the wall
Sure as the turning of the night into day
Your smile, girl
Brings the morning light to my eyes
Lifts away the blues when I rise
I hope that you’re coming to stay
‘Cause I’m waitin’
Waitin’ on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Waitin’ on a sunny day
Hey
