Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Yeah, there's smell of fresh cut grass and it's filling up my senses

And the sun is shining down on the blossoms in the avenue

There's a buzzing fly hanging around the bluebells and the daisies

There's a lot more loving, yeah, left in this world

[Chorus]

Don't go

Don't leave me now, now, now

While the sun smiles

Stick around and laugh a while, yeah

[Verse 2]

And I lie on warm and soft sandy beaches

And my toes are submerged in the water and it feels good

Children playing, building castles on the shoreline

Like a painted little love, and Lord, it feels so fine

[Chorus]

Don't go

Don't leave me now, now, now

While the sun smiles

Stick around and laugh a while, yeah

[PostChorus]

Uh-huh, uh-huh

[Instrumental]

There's white horses and they're coming at me

And they face now, and

There's a blue sirocco blowing warm into my face

The sun is shining on the other side of the bridges

And the cars going by with smiles in the windows

There's a black cat lying in the shadow of the gate-post

And the black cat keeps telling me that love is on its way, yeah

There's a black cat lying in the shadow of the gate-post

And the black cat tells me that love is on its way

[Chorus]

Don't go

Don't leave us now, now, now

While the sun smiles

Stick around and laugh a while, yeah

Stick around and laugh a while (Don't go)

[Instrumental]

Oh, don't go

Don't leave me now, now, now

While the sun smiles

Stick around and laugh a while, yeah

[PostChorus]

Uh-huh, uh-huh

[Bridge]

Right here, baby

Come and hear me

You don't have to leave at all

[Chorus]

Oh, don't go

Don't leave me now, now, now

While the sun smiles

Stick around and laugh a while, yeah

[Outro]

Oh

(Don't go) Yeah

I can hear you coming now, now, now

(Don't go) I know it won't be long, won't be long, oh

(Don't go) Don't leave me now, now, now

While the sun smiles

Stick around and laugh a while, yeah

Pour in louder, louder

(Don't go) I've been waiting

(Don't go)
