Woke up this morning to a perfect day
I opend my window, heard a sparrow say (twee dee deet deet)
Positive thoughts are runnin' through my mind
Nothin' is wrong, feelin' real strong
'Cause a new day is done
The sun is shining, no clouds in view
Lovers are holdin' hands, the world is brand new
Ev'rybody's smilin', summer's comin' through
But the only thing that's missin' is you
I see you smilin' through your photograph
Things you said still make me laugh
Deep inside I'm on the edge of tears
But I can't be crying, sittin' 'round sighin'
Just 'cause you are not here
The sun is shining, no clouds in view
Lovers holdin' hands, the world's brand new
Ev'rybody's smilin', summer's comin' through
But the only tihing that is missin' is you
Tell me, what do you do when love has come and gone?
You count your blessings and move on
No ain't lonely! This ain't the sad song!
There's just one contradiction
I can't stand to be alone when
The sun is shining, no clouds in view
Lovers are holdin' hands, the world's brand new
Ev'rybody's smilin', summer's comin' through
But the only thing that's missin' is you
-Aretha Franklin
