Words and Music by Margo Guryan
Sunday morning
Sun shining from your eyes
Smiling into mine
Sunday morning
Lots of time with nothing to do
Lots of time to spend with you
On Sunday morning
It's so quiet in the street
We can hear the sound of feet walking by
I'll put coffee on to brew
We can have a cup or two
And do what other people do
On Sunday morning
Sunday morning, Sunday morning, Sunday, Sunday
I love Sunday, Sunday morning
Come hold me in your arms
I love you
Everything's alright
Sunday morning
Everything's alright

😢sadly these days are gone. The 60’s was packed with excellent entertainment and music. I really don’t think it will ever be repeated 😢
@muffs55mercury61
It's my favorite Spanky song. I live on the edge of a small town and Sunday mornings are like what they say here, so quiet. I think of this song on beautiful Sunday mornings.
NO it will never be repeated ever.
@LoneLee2022
Music like this is what made the 60's so special. Makes me cry.
@muffs55mercury61
It does me too. With all the bad things going on in 1968 music was the best escape.
@josecarrales2842
These songs capture the zeitgeist of that era.
