Sunshine (is a state of mind) It's not the weather, it's the clouds in your eyes That bring the thunder to your skies And sitting still to wring your hands and bathe in wishful thinking Won't stop the falling rain or save your cloud-filled ship from sinking Give yourself a little time, and then you'll find Sunshine is a state of mind, sunshine is a state of mind. Chains of past regret, so hard to break Bitter-sweet, addictive, the taste of heartache Lingers on your lips, and in your secret heart You hold it close to hide your fear of ever making a new start Give yourself a little time, and then you'll find Sunshine is a state of mind, sunshine is a state of mind. <Middle 8> Doubts that bring you down, clouds that leave you blind Are only in your eyes until you blink them away - leave them behind With open heart and open mind <solos> Give yourself a little time, and then you'll find Sunshine is a state of mind, sunshine is a state of mind. Just wanting to believe never made it so But letting yourself dream and letting go Of the things that hold you back, wishes you know can't come true Lets you find your way, let's start today Give yourself a little time, and then you'll find Sunshine is a state of mind, sunshine is a state of mind.

Rain Verse 1 Nothing but the rain, coming down today Everything's the same, nothing new to say Nothing but the rain, to wash away the fear Everything's the same, but spring comes every year Chorus 1 Turn and face the sun, surrender to the season All is said and done, the rain is just a reason To grow stronger, The rain is just a reason to grow stronger Verse 2 Days that only break, nights that only fall Dreams from which you wake, feeling lost and small Days that only break into the light of day Dreams from which you wake, to start out on your way Chorus 2 Turn and face the sun, surrender to the season When all is said and done, you know the rain is just a reason To grow stronger, Yeah, the rain is just a reason to grow stronger Middle 8 You build your wall of words, hide behind your scars, You're keeping who you want to be from who you are, And never risking love keeps you safe from pain, Safe and cold, and all alone, with nothing but the rain. Verse 3 Nothing but the rain, coming down today Everything's the same, nothing new to say There's nothing but the rain, to wash away the fear And everything's the same, but spring comes every year Chorus 3 Turn and face the sun, surrender to the season When all is said and done, you know the rain is just a reason To grow stronger, Yeah, the rain is just a reason to grow stronger

Pretty Blue 03:28
Pretty Blue There are no clouds to mar my summer skies They are the colour of your pretty eyes And I have no right to sit here, wishing over you But here I am, pretty blue. Sun through the trees here, in this quiet place Dappled light plays on your pretty face I can't ask you to be true But here I am, pretty blue. I'm so blue, thinking of you on your own, me here alone, I can't be with you, it's just a crying shame, but all the same I'll stay right here and dream of you, My pretty blue. Every day I wake up, you're on my mind I want to tell you that you are my kind No reason for hoping you feel it too But here I am, pretty blue.

about

DaylightSaving Canterbury, UK

Having been told they weren't 'pure jazz enough' by a UK radio station that shall remain nameless, Richard and Kate delight in describing themselves as 'mongrel dogs of jazz-pop fusion and proud of it'. That half of their songs sound more like contemporary folk than either pop or jazz is neither here nor there.
DaylightSaving's sound combines elements of jazz, pop, folk and Latin.
Formed Nov 2008
