Daylight over the Village Green early in the morning
Daylight over the hills and valleys heralding the morning
Daylight over the mountains, daylight on the Village Green,
Daylight over the field and the factories
Another night has gone away and here comes yet another day
See the early morning risers walking round with bleary eyes
Worn out housewives grit their teeth ignoring new born babies'
Cries
Look at all the busy people this way, that way, everywhere
Biting toast and swallowing tea and breakfast specials on the
Air
Feel that daylight
Feel the sunlight on my pillow and it stops my yawing
I thank God that I'm still around to see another dawn in
Daylight over the valleys, daylight lighting up the trees,
Daylight over the hillside,
Smile a smile and sing a song, another night has been and gone
Middle-aged bankers crack their backs and wish they were young
And in their teens,
Lonely spinsters dream of dating Roger Moore or Steve McQueen
Health fanatics in their attics training for the Empire Games,
School boys dream of Captain Scarlet, battle ships and
Aeroplanes
Feel that daylight, Daylight
Daylight on the Village Green,
Daylight,
Field and the valleys,
Daylight
