Youngbloods, The - Sunlight Lyrics






Have you seen the sunlight pouring through her hair
Felt her warm mouth on you in the summer's air
Running in a field of brown
Laughing rolling on the ground
Smiling as she pulls you down
That's the way she feels about you

If your dreams can wake you screaming in the night
She can touch your face and take away your fright
Like a tree in the meadow wind
She will bend to take you in
Makes no difference of where you been
That's the way she feels about you

If you wake up screaming
Scared about what you're dreaming
You know she is there she can share
You're aware she cares about you

In the morning wake up laughing with the day
She will smile and ask you with her eyes to stay
Like the sunshine warms the sand
She will touch you with her hands
Touching makes you understand
That's the way she feels about you

Like the sunshine warms the sand
She will touch you with her hands
Touching makes you understand
That's the way she feels about you
That's the way she feels about you
That's the way she feels about you

    I'm using this song for the opening of a show I'm writing.

  2. p.... ....

    For many of us who were young men when we listened to this, Sunlight ALWAYS brings back a very particular girl in our lives.

  3. A.... ....

    groovy song lives on... and on ✌🏼

  4. m.... ....

    At the party after I married my wife in 1976, my friend Steve Johnson (now deceased) told me he had figured out the guitar part, and I thought that I might know the words. We just up and NAILED IT, and the place went wild! Miss you , Steve.  
    Oh yes ....... Lisa and I are still married! :)

  5. L.... D....

    I was crazy about this song about 1969. Too cool. Great memories.

  6. D.... I....

    Timeless

    Wow!lyrics, favorite Youngbloods song and Double Sunlight "Josiane"(Rock Festival) is magic too. So many.Go Youngbloods!JCY one of a kind.

  8. J.... P....

    Should have been a hit. Never cracked the Hot 100 on two tries. :(

  9. s.... l....

    Used to sing this song to my baby to put him back to sleep when he woke up scared.

  10. t.... n....

    Driving around Marin county in 1971, when Elephant Mountain came into view, there was nothing else to do but pull over and "climb it".

  11. R.... U....

    Great song, oh well the memories.

  12. h.... ....

    Good for a slow dance song! Dwight has a perfect voice for it ;)

    h.... ....

    It's a bossa nova

  13. s.... ....

    Saw these guys are a few rock festivals back in day. When you are peaking on some purple barrel, this music really smooths out the experience.

  19. m.... m....

    found this by accident so glad i did

  20. F.... C....

    Played this last night at the Twisp River Suites. One of my most favorites. Great chords

  21. I.... ....

    I must now go listen to Dog & Butterfly

  22. D.... L....

    Does this song sort of seem like a McCartney song from the White Album? A really solid love ballad. It's something that music from this era was so good and so abundant that a band like this went under the radar.

  23. r.... l....

    Love this song. Brings back good memories.

  24. J.... T....

    Romance at its BEST - Always ....

  25. J.... J....

    Listen to "Stranger Love" from his first album, "The Soul of a City Boy" pre- Youngbloods.....Late night magic !!

  26. N.... ....

    A walk on the moon, movie brought me here! Love it!

  27. B.... ....

    If you like this...and you should...check out Kenny Rankin. Explicitly the "Like A Seed" album.

  28. T.... B....

    Love this Song!!!

  29. V.... H....

    going to be 44 years this April and we still feel the same....when we are together we feel like we are married.  we are both very gun shy

  30. J.... T....

    Been singing "Darkness, darkness, be my pillow..." For days!!! So GOOD to hear the Youngbloods sing it!!!!

  31. A.... R....

    Beautiful song! I wonder if America's "Ventura Highway" was influenced by this one...

  32. K.... S....

    A Blast from the past is always present too Kathleen Shedaker.... thanks for the reminder ~ kat

  33. V.... H....

    If Art only knew at that time, we were both shy,neither one of us pursued what we felt, but 43 years later I a truly blessed

  34. h.... ....

    our country's people need to re-invent our lives to the pathway of finding our happiness by ending our wars and bringing home our expenses to our own problems by first and most teaching our children love and making sure the country has a good future for them, by showing them we love each other and are gonna do for each other and by good example show the world our potential, and bring them to love us again!

  35. R.... F....

    Very nice relaxing song! Good taste.

  36. H.... M....

    i really love this song

  37. p.... o....

    Loved this movie

  38. s.... ....

    This song along with Darkness Darkness and Get Together are why Jesse Colin Young belongs in the Rock'n Roll Hall Of Fame. The Americana Hall Of Fame...something. One of the best voices in music history and he's a veritable footnote. Opened for him in Chicago back in the day. He was working solo as was I. His vocal facility was nothing short of astonishing. He's got the capstone version of 'Rye Whiskry'. Nobody else comes close. A whole album of just vocal and solo guitar. Untouchable.

    s.... ....

    What a great thing to say! :-)

  39. y.... ....

    sexy song

  40. S.... L....

    Groovy instruments man. Peace and good vibes to all.
