Lyrics Come to the Sunshine - Van Dyke Parks

Come to the Sunshine

Come to the sunshine
Hang your ups and down you comes to the sunshine
Come… to the sunshine
You know, I know, you know, that I love you
Weather here could not be finer
It suits to sail off Carolina’s shore
I’ll tell ya more and more over
Cotton threads to keep me cool
In the sun-swept afterglow
I know I’m a fool
But I’m hoping that you’ll be
Mine in time
Sailboats sail by two-by-two by
I think a lot of you I
Really doubt you think about me
Like I do you
We could laugh it all off
Of course I’d act on your behalf
Half of me would be
Forever together
Come to the sunshine
Hang your ups and down you comes to the sunshine
Come… to the sunshine
You know, I know, you know, that I love you
While they play the White Swan Serenade
Cornered, struck, I watched them promenade
Comforted -- got it made over
Dunn and Bradstreet, Vanity Fair
Who wears what, how much, and who’s been «where»
But I really don’t care
Unless we share
I have missed you since when
Went down to Port-au-Prince
Wicked way you rub the tinsel
Off my independence day
I want everyone and only
We should sail together
Come to the sunshine
