John Martyn Sunshines Better (Talvin Singh) - John Martyn

Written by：John Martyn

If I call you sugar if you call me honey

Does this mean you've got a hand in my fate

If you take my money if I take your liberty

Does it mean it's all down to love and hate

If you open doors for me

I'll have the manners to respond

I'll treat you like mine

Ah babe ah baby

Sunshine's better on the other side

Sunshine's better when you make it shine

The sun shines better

Sunshine's better on the other side

The other side of the hill

The sun shines better

If I call you lover and if you call me dad

Does it mean that we're in love

If you give me all your hate

Open up the garden gate

Does that mean we're in love

Tell me sugar call me honey

Come on darling I'll just take all my money

We can run away naked with the flames of desire

Running through water like birds of a feather

Like birds of a feather

I tell you sunshine's better on the other side

Sunshine's better on the other side

Sunshine's better on the other side

Sunshine's better on the other side of the flames

I've been there

Sunshine's better on the other side

The other side of the stream

Let's run in tonight let's run in tonight

The sunshine's better on the other side of the flames

Come on darling let's jump in tonight

Sunshine's better on

You make that smile of yours reappear

You chortle chuckle giggle mumble and

Swing like a *****

Sunshine's better on the other side

Til

Skinny dipping around the scene

Way down by the river

Better on the other side

They tell me that the sunshine's better on the other side

Better than this side you know

The sunshine's better over there

Better over there better over there

Run naked naked through the fire

Sunshine's better on the other side

Sunshine's better than you've ever seen

Before in your life
