Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your sunny, funny face
For you're a cutie
With more than beauty
You've got a lot of personality N.T.
Your thousand laughs I found
In having you around
For worlds I'd not replace
Your sunny, funny face
It's oh so very clear
I'm glad when you are near
No angel child from Heaven
Could ever take your place
I love that sunny, that's sweeter than honey
Sunny, funny face
