(sung by chorus) |
|
Daylight over the village green early in the morning. |
|
Daylight over the hills and valleys heralding the morning. |
|
Daylight over the mountains, daylight on the village green, |
|
Daylight over the field and the factories. |
|
Another night has gone away and here comes yet another day. |
|
See the early morning risers walking round with bleary eyes. |
|
Worn out housewives grit their teeth ignoring new born babies' cries. |
|
Look at all the busy people this way, that way, everywhere |
|
Biting toast and swallowing tea and breakfast specials on the air. |
|
Feel that daylight. |
|
Feel the sunlight on my pillow and it stops my yawing. |
|
I thank god that i'm still around to see another dawn in. |
|
Daylight over the valleys, daylight lighting up the trees, |
|
Daylight over the hillside, |
|
Smile a smile and sing a song, another night has been and gone. |
|
Middle-aged bankers crack their backs and wish they were young and in their teens, |
|
Lonely spinsters dream of dating roger moore or steve mcqueen. |
|
Health fanatics in their attics training for the empire games, |
|
School boys dream of captain scarlet, battle ships and aeroplanes. |
|
Feel that daylight, daylight. |
|
Daylight on the village green, |
|
Daylight, |
|
Field and the valleys, |
|
Daylight. |
