Sunshine of Your Love
Rockers Hi-Fi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
To be where I'm going
There, 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
There 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
There, in the sunshine of your love
The lyrics of Rockers Hi-Fi's Sunshine of Your Love describe the feeling of longing for someone and the eagerness to be with that person. The first lines of the song emphasize the early hours of the day when people have gone to sleep, and the singer is awake, waiting for the moment to be united with their lover. The second verse is filled with optimism, as the singer pledges to stay with their lover until the end of time. The words 'I'll soon be with you my love, To give you my dawn surprise' symbolize the singer's keenness to express their love to their partner, and how excited they are for the new day, the dawn, which they want to spend with them.
As the song progresses, the mood intensifies, and the words 'I've been waiting so long to be where I'm going, there in the sunshine of your love' become more pronounced, representing the singer's strong desire and anticipation of being with their partner. The original song Sunshine of Your Love by Cream was a rock song, whereas this version is transformed into a dub version, with electronics, bass and drums which are heavy and muted. The dub style of music is synonymous with reggae, which is known for its beats that blur the line between the bass and the drums. This version of the song is slower in tempo and delves into the emotional realm, evoking a heavier tone. The lyrics of Rockers Hi-Fi's rendition of the song might be interpreted as a plea to bask in the glow of love and romance, a feeling that can linger even in the darkest of moments.

I love the song, but that's definitely not Ella Fitzgerald singing. Still a thumbs up from me.
