Here Comes The Sun
Tosh Peter Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Little darling,
It's been a long, long lonely winter
Little darling,
It seems like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun and I say
It's all right

Little darling,
The smiles are returning to their places
Little darling,
It seems like years since they've been there

But here comes the sun
Here comes the sun and I say
It's all right

Little darling,
I see the ice is slowly melting
Little darling,
It seems like years since they've been there

And here comes the sun
There goes the snow and I say
It's all right
It's all right

I see the ice is slowly melting
Little darling,
It seems like years since they've been there

Here comes the sun
There goes the snow and I say
It's all right
It's all right

Little darling,
The smiles are returning to their places
Little darling,
It seems like years since they've been there

Here comes the sun




I said here comes the sun and I say
It's all right
