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