After the rain goes
People see rainbows,
But I see rainbows when it storms above!
So darlin', is it any wonder
I can laugh at thunder,
Walkin' in the sunshine of your love!

Ten below zero,
I'm such a hero,
I never wear a muffler or a glove!
While all the world has frosty noses,
I'm knee deep in roses,
Walkin' in the sunshine of your love!

Just so you know, dear,
I'm gonna tell ya
Your smile's my golden umbrella;
Keepin' the rsain out,
Trouble and pain out
O' my heart,
And from the very start;

Your tender affection
In my direction
Was like a lovely blessin' from above!
That's why I go around just beamin',
Wonderin' if I'm dreamin',
Walkin' in the sunshine of your love!

After the rain goes
People see rainbows,
But I see rainbows when it storms above!
So baby, is it any wonder
I can laugh at thunder, yeah!
Walkin' in the sunshine of your love!

Ten below zero,
I'm such a hero,
I never wear a muffler or a glove!
While all the world's got big red noses frosty noses,
I'm knee deep in roses,
Walkin' in the sunshine of your love!

Just so you know, dear,
I'm gonna tell ya
Your smile's my golden umbrella;
Keepin' the rsain out,
Trouble and pain out
O' my heart,
And from the very start;

Your tender affection
In my direction
Was like a lovely blessin' from above!
That's why I go around just beamin',
Wonderin' if I'm dreamin',
I'm walkin', walkin' in the sunshine of your love!
Yeah baby, you keep me nice and warm, yeah!
