Lyrics

[Verse 1]

It's been a while but your smile always brightens up my day

I guess you know, because it shows, you can see it on my face

Feels like you've put a spell on me, feels like you've captured me

And, baby, this is how I feel, ooh

[Verse 2]

Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile

Don't care if it's dark outside, 'cause I've got you

And though the rain may fall, no I won't care at all

'Cause, baby, I know that I got you

[Verse 3]

Everyday there's a change, you bring out the best in me

My inner soul is what you know , that is how you speak to me

You seem to understand, you know just who I am

And, baby, this is how I feel, ooh

[Verse 4]

Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile

Don't care if it's dark outside, 'cause I've got you

And though the rain may fall, no I won't care at all

'Cause, baby, I know that I got you

[Verse 5]

Don't need a rocket man to help me touch the sky

I don't need to fly a plane to get this high

Don't need to hitch a ride when I could run a million miles

Yes I would, just to see you smile

[Verse 6]

Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile

Don't care if it's dark outside, 'cause I've got you

And, baby, I got you

And though the rain may fall, no I won't care at all

'Cause, baby, I know that I got you, I got you, I got you, yeah

[Verse 7]

Don't need the sun to shine to make me smile

Don't care if it's dark outside, 'cause I've got you

Baby, I've got you

And though the rain may fall, no I won't care at all

'Cause, baby, I know that I got you

Ooh, I got you singin' and it feels right, you got me feelin' so good, so right
