It entered through the window
And bounced up off the floor
It bounced around the room
And bounced off all the doors.
It changed the look of everything
From the dark into the bright
It changed the time of day
It cancelled out the night.
It feels so warm and cozy
It turns the cold into the warm
It's just what we love to see
After the passing of the storm.
It always makes us feel good
And brightens up our day
It brings us so much happiness
With every golden ray.
It has been around forever
Over a million years or so
It's a necessity of life
In order for things to grow.
There'd be nothing left on earth
The world would be done
If we didn't have that miracle
That we call the 'Sun'.
