My Girl
Jon Peter Lewis Lyrics

These lyrics are from Jon Peter Lewis's song My Girl. The song is about the joy and happiness that the singer feels when he is with his girl. The lyrics begin with a metaphor - "I've got sunshine on a cloudy day, when it's cold outside, I've got the month of May." This is a way of expressing that the singer's girl brings him warmth, happiness and joy even in the toughest of times. The first two lines of the song set the tone for the rest of the lyrics - the singer glorifies his girl and states how she makes him feel.

The next set of lyrics "I've got so much honey the bees envy me, I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees, I guess you'd say what can make me feel this way? My girl" is another metaphor used to describe the level of happiness and love that the singer has for his girl. He has so much love that even the bees envy him and his song for his girl is sweeter than any bird's in the trees. He is boasting about the amount of love that he has to give, and his girl is the lucky recipient.

In the following lyrics, "I don't need no money fortune or fame, I've got all the riches baby one man can claim, I guess you'd say, what can make me feel this way? My girl" the singer is shunning societal luxuries, and instead, he feels that his girl is all he needs to make him happy. He implies that all the riches he needs are his girl's love and affection, and it's enough for him. The song ends on a sweet note - "I've got sunshine on a cloudy day, with my girl, I've even got the month of May, with my girl". The singer is surrounded by sunshine and happiness when he is with his girl. She completes him, and he couldn't ask for more.
