I Don’t Need Sunny Skies

[ Verse 1: Dan Zanes]
Hey there, duchess, don't you know
A little rain is gonna come and go
But I don't need sunny skies to sing about you

[ Verse 2: Andrew Bird]
I'm like the birds up in the trees
With an endless store of melodies
And I don't need sunny skies to sing about you

[ Chorus 1: Both]
I'd sing about your laughing eyes
The way they fill the room
The way you're lighting the sky upon this rainy afternoon

[Verse 3: Dan Zanes]
Aw, thanks for the flowers
Thanks for the smile
I'm gonna sit and play my guitar for a while
I don't need sunny skies to sing about you

[Chorus 2: Both]
I'd sing about your dancing feet
The way you jump and spin
The way you open the door and let this world waltz right on in

[Instrumental]

[Verse 4: Andrew Bird]
Hey there duchess, don't you know, here's a tune to say I love you so
And I don't need sunny skies to sing about you

[Outro: Both]
Oh, I don't need sunny skies to sing about you
I don't need sunny skies to sing about you
I don't need sunny skies to sing about you
