After the rain goes, people see rainbows,

But I see rainbows when it storms above,

So darling, is it any wonder I can laugh at thunder,

Walking in the sunshine of your love.

And below zero, I'm such a hero,

I never wear a muffler or a glove,

While all the world have frosty noses,

I'm knee-deep in roses,

Walking in the sunshine of your love.

Just so you know dear, I'm gonna tell you,

Your smile's my golden umbrella,

Even the rain-out, trouble and pain out of my heart.

And from the very start you tender affection in my direction.

T'was like a lovely blessing from above.

That's why I go around just beaming, wond'ring if I'm dreaming,

Walking in the sunshine of your love.

After the rain goes, people see rainbows,

But I see rainbows while it storms above,

So baby, is it any wonder I can laugh at thunder,

Walking in the sunshine of your love.

And below zero, and I'm a hero,

I never wear a muffler or a glove,

While all the world got big red noses,

I'm knee-deep in roses,

Walking in the sunshine of your love.

Just so you know dear, I'm gonna tell you,

Your smile's my golden umbrella,

Even the rain-out, trouble and pain out of my heart.

And from the very start your affection in my direction

Was like a lovely blessing from above.

That's why I go around just beaming, wond'ring if I'm dreaming,

I'm walking, walking in the sunshine of your love.

Yeah, baby, you keep me and warm,
