When the Sun's Shined Its Face on Me
Rick Nelson · Perspective [Decca] [1969]
(R. Whitelaw)
Like bright lightning
It happened from above
You sent me down somebody
Somebody to love.
My life was stormy skies
Emptiness and pain
You sent your sunshine down
To drive away the rain.
When the sun shined it's face on me
It brought me happiness
When the sun shined it's face on me
It brought me gladness
Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just like a summer sun
Chased away the nightime
It felt so lonely then
Now it's just the right time.
And when you touched my hand
The sun began to shine
And when you smiled at me
I knew that love was mine.
When the sun shined it's face on me
It brought me happiness
When the sun shined it's face on me
It brought me gladness
Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
When the sun shined it's face on me
It brought me happiness
When the sun shined it's face on me
It brought me gladness
Oh yeah.
When the sun shined it's face on me
It brought me happiness
When the sun shined it's face on me
It brought me gladness.
When the sun shined it's face on me
It brought me happiness
When the sun shined it's face on me
It brought me gladness...
Like bright lightning

Emptiness and pain
You sent your sunshine down
To drive away the rain.
When the sun shined it's face on me
It brought me happiness

It brought me gladness
Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
