Here Comes the Sun by the Beatles

Very appropriate song for these times. Today was a beautiful warm sunny day in central New Jersey were we live.

AND I have heard that some New Jersey hospitals have played this song as their Covid-19 patients are discharged home.

And so please do sing along...

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun, doo-doo-doo-doo, here comes the sun

Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear

Here comes the sun, doo-doo-doo-doo, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes

[1968Hoya46]
