Sunshine Gold (Mayfields)

"The changing of the seasons,
Have brought the winter breezes,
But now it's almost to see the sunshine.
We're planning our vacations,
And watch how well we'll take them,
Cause' we're all ready now to have some fun."

Drops of Jupiter (Train):

"Now that she's back

in the atmosphere

with drops of Jupiter

in her hair...

She acts like summer

and walks like rain"
