GOOD MORNIN' SUNSHINE, GOODBYE
(Even Stevens)


Sammi Smith - 1976



Oh, I'm just passin' through
I didn't mean to run into you
I'm on my way to Tennessee
And Dallas sure has changed a lot
In the two years I ain't been here
But you look just the same to me

And you'd think by now the need to touch you'd be gone from my mind
But that old familiar yearning's callin' me
So before my conscience wanders in, I gotta tell ya 
That this'll be a one night memory

'Cause I'm satisfied with my life back in tennessee
But I can't deny that holdin' you feels right
So if mornin' breaks to find us in the afterglow of lovin'
It'll be thanks for the good night and kiss me one last time
Good mornin' sunshine, goodbye

It should be easy enough for you to understand my situation
You loved me once, but chose to stay by her
But let's not linger in the past while we're burnin' with emotion
Just love me back to where we were

And now you tremble as I kiss the sweet unforgotten places
And right now you're the first thing on my mind
So if mornin' breaks to find us in the afterglow of lovin'
It'll be thanks for the good night and kiss me one last time
Good mornin' sunshine, goodbye
Goodbye
