Well it's a most peculiar feeling    Like sunburn in the evening    With dark clouds on their way    And you think it's most unlikely    Life could ever shine as brightly    Once the sun has gone and the pressure's on    And the rain is here again       But you don't need the sunshine    Don't need the good times    Don't need anything anyone's giving    And I don't mind your lies so keep on talking       Do you find the change in season?    Affects you without reason    You've greetings but nothing more to say    And you swear you'd feel much better    If only summer'd last forever    But the sky is clear and you're nowhere near    And the rain is here again       But you don't need the sunshine    Don't need the good times    Lean on me maybe you could see it through    If you would only believe a single word is true       But you don't need the sunshine    Don't need the good times    Don't need anything anyone's giving    And I don't mind your lies so keep on talking       I throw away my sunshines    My so-called little lifelines    Do you know what I mean?    When I decided that the answer    Could not be bought across the counter    My sista dista had left for good    Now the rain has gone away       But you don't need the sunshine    Don't need the good times    Don't need anything anyone's giving    And I don't mind your lies so keep on talking
