Sunshine of Your Love
Cream Lyrics
It's getting near dawn
When lights close their tired eyes
I'll soon be with you my love
Give you my dawn surprise
I'll be with you darling soon
I'll be with you when the stars start falling
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
I'm with you my love
The light's shining through on you
Yes, I'm with you my love
It's the morning and just we two
I'll stay with you darling now
I'll stay with you 'til my seas are dried up
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
I'm with you my love
The light's shining through on you
Yes, I'm with you my love
It's the morning and just we two
I'll stay with you darling now
I'll stay with you 'til my seas are dried up
I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love

It's getting near dawn,
When lights close their tired eyes
I'll soon be with you my love,
To give you my dawn surprise
I'll be with you darling soon,
I'll be with you when the stars start falling
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
I'm with you my love,
The light's shining through on you
Yes, I'm with you my love,
It's the morning and just we two
I'll stay with you darling now,
I'll stay with you till my seas are dried up
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love
I'm with you my love,
The light's shining through on you.
Yes, I'm with you my love,
It's the morning and just we two.
I'll stay with you darling now,
I'll stay with you till my seas are dried up
I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love

@James Sawley come on, use your head. The Metal has its origins on the Hard Rock music from late 60s which was a combination of psychedelic music and blues.
Such artists as Jimi Hendrix Experience, Cream or Iron Butterfly were pioneers in methods like using the wah-wah pedal, using louder speakers and play the guitar in a faster and heavier way. Songs like this one, In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida or Purple Haze were the very first ones with a powerful sound that made a new subgender called Heavy Metal.
I don't know if you know it but back in the latest 60s it was called Heavy Rock and bands like Cream or the early Led Zeppelin were used to be described with that term.
If you really thing Cream has nothing to do with Heavy Metal, you must now that Tony Iommi said Cream was the biggest influence for him and he also said it was the cornerstone for Black Sabbath's sound in early 70s.
When we talk about Heavy Metal we ain't talking about bands like Metallica but about the ORIGINAL and CLASSIC Heavy Metal of the 70s. We talk about Black Sabbath, Deep Purple (MkII, III) or, maybe, Led Zeppelin. You just cannot compare Cream with Megadeth but whit Purple, Sabbath or Rainbow.
The Beatles are far away from being a Metal band but they made Helter Skelter which was one of the first Metal songs alongside with the cover of Summertime Blues made by Blue Cheer.
What I said is right. Metal wouldn't be the same without Cream cause they were one of the very first Hard Rock bands whose sound evolved into Heavy Metal.

When I heard a local band nail this song live shortly after it came out, I was hooked! I took guitar playing seriously from that moment on.
