Somebody stole my sunshine

[The Gobi Desert Canoe Club]

Hi all, a final farewell to childhood. Maybe.  Roscoe

I was looking back in my colouring book
Houses, boats and planes.
Mum and Dad, the family pet, and speeding trains
And boats that floated on the sea

Chorus
But somebody stole my sunshine
It's not on any page I can see.
There were rainbows in the thunderclouds
But someone stole the sun from me.

I was reading my book of fairy tales
They seemed so dark to me.
In the deepest wood where there were no trails
No fairy Queen to rescue me

Chorus

I was watching from my window,
I was staring at the moon
It was coloured the deepest red
Just like a blood filled balloon

Chorus, Instrumental Outro

[Hook]

I love that chorus brother, super sweet, great listen!
Rock oN!

[Greeny]

A very slick and soothing soundscape. A mighty fine song, performance and production. The guitar layering is so nicely done; each part is beautiful and melodic. And as Hook says, the chorus is a belter.

Cor, blimey!! What a belter!!

Powerful and brooding, wonderfully arranged and recorded. A captivating listen.

Oh wow! Love this - melancholy and yet left me with a smile as I thought of my childhood. Beautiful guitar too! Thanks for sharing - downloaded.

Superbly constructed song here. Love the chorus and lyrics. The guitars have a wonderful sound that wraps around you...loving this track.

Hi and thank you all for your very generous comments. As always I appreciate the time you take and value your observations which hopefully will lead to better songs. Regards Roscoe

Well done again, Roscoe! Melanchol and beautiful!

[Johnbee]

Very somber and well done.  Contemplative and thoughtful lyric line.
