Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, there's smell of fresh cut grass and it's filling up my senses
And the sun is shining down on the blossoms in the avenue
There's a buzzing fly hanging around the bluebells and the daisies
There's a lot more loving, yeah, left in this world
[Chorus]
Don't go
Don't leave me now, now, now
While the sun smiles
Stick around and laugh a while, yeah
[Verse 2]
And I lie on warm and soft sandy beaches
And my toes are submerged in the water and it feels good
Children playing, building castles on the shoreline
Like a painted little love, and Lord, it feels so fine
[Chorus]
Don't go
Don't leave me now, now, now
While the sun smiles
Stick around and laugh a while, yeah
[PostChorus]
Uh-huh, uh-huh
[Instrumental]
There's white horses and they're coming at me
And they face now, and
There's a blue sirocco blowing warm into my face
The sun is shining on the other side of the bridges
And the cars going by with smiles in the windows
There's a black cat lying in the shadow of the gate-post
And the black cat keeps telling me that love is on its way, yeah
There's a black cat lying in the shadow of the gate-post
And the black cat tells me that love is on its way
[Chorus]
Don't go
Don't leave us now, now, now
While the sun smiles
Stick around and laugh a while, yeah
Stick around and laugh a while (Don't go)
[Instrumental]
Oh, don't go
Don't leave me now, now, now
While the sun smiles
Stick around and laugh a while, yeah
[PostChorus]
Uh-huh, uh-huh
[Bridge]
Right here, baby
Come and hear me
You don't have to leave at all
[Chorus]
Oh, don't go
Don't leave me now, now, now
While the sun smiles
Stick around and laugh a while, yeah
[Outro]
Oh
(Don't go) Yeah
I can hear you coming now, now, now
(Don't go) I know it won't be long, won't be long, oh
(Don't go) Don't leave me now, now, now
While the sun smiles
Stick around and laugh a while, yeah
Pour in louder, louder
(Don't go) I've been waiting
(Don't go)
