Waitin’ on a Sunny Day Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's raining, but there ain't a cloud in the sky
Must have been a tear from your eye
Everything will be okay
Yeah, funny, I thought I felt a sweet summer breeze
Must have been you sighing so deep
Don't worry, we're gonna find a way
[Chorus]
I'm waiting
Waiting on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Yeah, I'm waiting on a sunny day
[Verse 2]
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 comin' to stay
[Chorus]
I'm waiting
Waiting on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Yeah, I'm waiting on a sunny day
It's raining, but there ain't a cloud in the sky
Must have been a tear from your eye
Everything will be okay
Yeah, funny, I thought I felt a sweet summer breeze
Must have been you sighing so deep
Don't worry, we're gonna find a way
[Chorus]
I'm waiting
Waiting on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Yeah, I'm waiting on a sunny day
[Verse 2]
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 comin' to stay
[Chorus]
I'm waiting
Waiting on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Yeah, I'm waiting on a sunny day
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
I'm waiting
Waiting on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Yeah, I'm waiting on a sunny day (eh!)
[Trumpet solo]
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
[Chorus]
I'm waiting
Waiting on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Yeah, I'm waiting on a sunny day (eh!)
[Trumpet solo]
