Lyrics
Walk In the Sunshine
By Ted Horrell
You keep saying that you’re done playing
but your boys keep hanging around
And I’m your fool so much thicker than the wool
over my eyes but I’m seeing it now
I’m just like a locket you keep down in your pocket
In the dark, where no one can see
You don’t own me but sometimes on the phone
You make me think that someday you’ll want me
You’ve been leading me on all this time
But I’ve figured out the deal
And I’m ready to walk in the sunshine
But I know that’s something that you don’t want to do
So I wait in the wings while you play with other things
But someday you want stability
You take great caution to hold open your options
Just in case you want to end up with me
You’ve been leading me on all this time
And I don’t like how that feels
And I’m ready to walk in the sunshine
And I know that’s something you don’t want to do
So if you go downtown you best not look around
Because there’s no telling where I’ll be
And you may be surprised to see someone by my side
In the place where you’ll never be
Cause I’ve been putting you on, this time
And you know I know just how it feels
And I’m not walking alone in the sunshine
And I know that’s something you thought you’d never see
Cause I’ve been putting you on, this time
And you know I know just how it feels
And I’m not walking alone in the sunshine
And I know that’s something you hoped you’d never see
If you see me baby, look away
