Let the darkest hour come just before the dawn
Soon the melancholy hum of nighttime will be gone
Shadows creeping 'round the world, leaving doubt and fear
Daylight soon will be unfurled, look the morning's here

Wake with the buttercup
Come on, get up, get up
Here comes the Sun
Open your sleepy eyes
Look at the flaming skies
Here comes the Sun

Turn your back on the night
Morning's cheerful and bright
Not a shadow in your way
This day is your day

Wake with the singing birds
Shout out those lucky words
Here comes the Sun
Lovers are hand-in-hand
This is the promised land
Daydreams are spun 

Laugh, your sorrow is over
Then half the battle is won
Life's no gloomy race
Life's your happy face
Here comes the Sun

(Orchestral Break)

Wake with the buttercup
Come on, get up, get up
Here comes the Sun
Open your sleepy eyes
Look at the flaming skies
Here comes the Sun

Turn your back on the night
Morning's cheerful and bright
Not a shadow in your way
This day is your day

Wake with the singing birds
Shout out those lucky words
Here comes the Sun
Lovers are hand-in-hand
This is the promised land
Daydreams are spun 

Laugh, your sorrow is over
Then half the battle is won
Life's no gloomy race
Life's your happy face
Here comes the Sun
