A song for Maddy
Dear Maddy was my great nephew and of course he's been in my thoughts a lot, as he's been in the thoughts of others reading and posting here. I have no idea if Maddy liked or even knew of any John Denver songs, but this one, Sunshine on My Shoulders, that I sang with my online singing group tonight made me think of sending, with love, to Maddy.💜💜💜
Chorus:
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high
If I had a day that I could give you
I'd give to you the day just like today
If I had a song that I could sing for you
I'd sing a song to make you feel this way
Chorus
If I had a tale that I could tell you
I'd tell a tale sure to make you smile
If I had a wish that I could wish for you
I'd make a wish for sunshine for all the while
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high
What a lovely moving tribute, Martha.
