Chorus:
For the first time in a long time
I want the sunshine to shine on me
I want those hillsides to feel me walking
And I want your love all over me.
Ten years ago I guess you know
I gave my heart and my hand
But she left me here to grieve but never know
All my days have been like nights
My nights have been long days
But when I saw you I knew I'd love again.
Chorus:
For the first time in a long time
I want the sunshine to shine on me
I want those hillsides to feel me walking
And I want your love all over me.
