sunshine on my shoulders

Sitting on the verandah, with the sun warming my back and my insides. Drinking a cup of green tea. My sweet Phoebe for company. Its idyllic, but I'm a little afraid to be alone with my thoughts. They lead to the same person and the same situation in a very irritating recurrent manner. I have admitted my feelings and thoughts to myself and to God, and no one else. I miss that refrain that was taught to me at college... I think it was "I cast my burden upon God and walk free"... It had really helped me out then, and it helped me sleep last night after a week of sleeplessness.

But that burden of thought has found its way back into my mind where its repeating itself like a bad tune. I'm becoming a bit too self involved and a tad obsessive. All this in the space of but three days. This has to be the longest week of my life. And its only wednesday! Please God, if there's something better up ahead for me, let me see it now, before I go out of my mind with the waiting and disappointment- if thers going to be any...





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

If I had a day that I could give you
I'd give to you the day just like today
If I had a song that I could sing for you
I'd sing a song to make you feel this way

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

If I had a tale that I could tell you
I'd tell a tale sure to make you smile
If I had a wish that I could wish for you
I'd make a wish for sunshine for all the while

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost all the time makes me high
