Verse:
Time it goes, I suppose, too suddenly
But the things I thing I've lost I find back in the sea
Before the world began
Before you held my hand
Are you married with a family?
Did you move back to Rodanthe?
Do you chase away those bad boys too?
Remember when you used to think you loved a bad boy too?
Chorus
You had sunshine, sunshine
All over you
Red wine, tan lines
and nothing to prove
Bridge:
G C Em D
One day it might be as good as it was
G C
But it'll never be better
G C
It'll never be better
Chorus:
Sunshine, sunshine all over me
brown eyes, blue skies
Are all I see
