Daylight

(Sung by Chorus)

Daylight over the Village Green early in the morning

Daylight over the hills and valleys heralding the morning

Daylight over the mountains, daylight on the Village Green

Daylight over the field and the factories

Another night has gone away and here comes yet another day

See the early morning risers walking round with bleary eyes

Worn out housewives grit their teeth ignoring new born babies' cries

Look at all the busy people this way, that way, everywhere

Biting toast and swallowing tea and breakfast specials on the air

Feel that daylight

I feel the sunlight on my pillow and it stops my yawning

I thank God that I'm still around to see another dawn in

Daylight over the valleys, daylight lighting up the trees

Daylight over the hillside

Smile a smile and sing a song, another night has been and gone

Middle-aged bankers crack their backs and wish they were young and in their teens

Lonely spinsters dream of dating Roger Moore or Steve McQueen

Health fanatics in their attics training for the Empire Games

School boys dream of Captain Scarlet, battle ships and aeroplanes

Feel that daylight, Daylight

Daylight on the Village Green

Daylight

Field and the valleys

Daylight
