Lyrics of
Sunny

Sunny was composed by Bobby Hebb in 1963. It was inspired both by the assassination of John F. Kennedy and by the passing of his brother Harold Hebb the day after. Hebb wrote the song as a way to express his feelings and to try to bring a positive light despite the tragedies.

Sunny, yesterday my life was filled with rain
Sunny, you smiled at me and really eased the pain
Now the dark days are done and the bright days are near
My sunny one shines so sincere
Sunny, one so true
I love you

Sunny, thank you for the sunshine bouquet
Sunny, thank you for the love you brought my way
You gave to me your all and all
And now I feel ten feet tall
Sunny, one so true
I love you

Sunny, thank you for the truth you let me see
Sunny, thank you for the facts from A to Z
My life was torn like-a windblown sand, then
A rock was formed when we held hands
Sunny, one so true
I love you

Sunny, thank you for that smile upon your face
Sunny, thank you for that gleam that flows from grace
You're my spark of nature's fire
You're my sweet complete desire
Sunny, one so true
I love you

Sunny, yesterday all my life was filled with rain
Sunny, you smiled at me and really really eased the pain
Now the dark days are done and the bright days are near
My sunny one shines so sincere
Sunny, one so true
I love you
I love you
