Sunny Hours Lyrics
Well I've strolled across some dance floors filled with girls all dressed in red
Pulled my foot from my mouth, answer back the things i've said.
Wander through the valley of the shadow of the dead
Stumbled on this old sun dial, then these words I read.
I only count the sunny hours, brightest hours of day.
I never count the gloomy hours I let them slip away. And I realize I'm away.
(Chorus)
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
I'm alright ya'll.
Alright ya'll.
Ya wanna be alright you gotta walk tall.
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
I'm alright ya'll.
Alright ya'll.
Ya wanna be alright you gotta walk tall.
Well I woke up in to many beds with girls I didn't know.
I seen lots of brothers at top and I watched them come & go,
Tell me why I'm not dead with them in the valley down below.
I give thanks everyday for these words they save my soul.
I only count the sunny hours, brightest hours of day.
I never count the gloomy hours I let them slip away. And I realize I'm away.
(Chorus)
It's like the wise man said relax yourself
When it's movin too fast set it down
When the goin gets tough it gets you goin
If ya really wanna speak then make a sound
Keep your eyes on the prize and realize
That the trouble's gonna come in all shapes and sizes
Well ya gotta stay strong don't let your knees buckle
Ya gotta keep hustlin, keep hustlin, movin, groovin
That's the lovin that's the lovin come back to me....(4x)
Pulled my foot from my mouth, answer back the things i've said.
Wander through the valley of the shadow of the dead
Stumbled on this old sun dial, then these words I read.
I only count the sunny hours, brightest hours of day.
I never count the gloomy hours I let them slip away. And I realize I'm away.
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
I'm alright ya'll.
Alright ya'll.
Ya wanna be alright you gotta walk tall.
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
I'm alright ya'll.
Alright ya'll.
Ya wanna be alright you gotta walk tall.
I seen lots of brothers at top and I watched them come & go,
Tell me why I'm not dead with them in the valley down below.
I give thanks everyday for these words they save my soul.
I only count the sunny hours, brightest hours of day.
I never count the gloomy hours I let them slip away. And I realize I'm away.
It's like the wise man said relax yourself
When it's movin too fast set it down
When the goin gets tough it gets you goin
If ya really wanna speak then make a sound
Keep your eyes on the prize and realize
That the trouble's gonna come in all shapes and sizes
Well ya gotta stay strong don't let your knees buckle
Ya gotta keep hustlin, keep hustlin, movin, groovin

LONG BEACH! YA! Long Beach, CA rules. R.I.P Bradley Nowell.
The last part's lyrics are: "Let the lovin', Let the lovin' come back to me." It is a sample of Brad's voice during What I Got.
this song is amazing, i'm very glad to see the members of sublime still kicking, i didn't want the sad death of bradley to stop them from making there lovely music again. Some people say its not the same with out bradley, i agree. But atleast its better then the gay shit on most of the radio today.
This song is awesome...as well is the entire band. It's definately nowhere near the same as it was when Brad was there. There won't ever be another band like Sublime. People need to look at these guys not as Sublime's replacement though. These guys love music, and because their best bud dies it doesn't mean that they're going to abandon their livelihood, their hobby, what they love to do. R.I.P. Brad, we're all missin ya.
yeah i agree with you mavrikz, they do love music and they aren't going to stop it just because bradley dies. but at the same time, everytime i hear this song i get pissed off. they didn't need to put bradley's voice in it. to me that's like them living off of bradley. they don't want to be recognized as a tribute band, yet they cover most sublime songs and they put bradley's voice in this song. ionno. they need to be their own band. rest in peace bradley. i love you, and im going to visit your gravesite this weekend, again, to pay my respects. lbc forever
you guys are great,, plzz dont ever stop doin muzek, u still got it ,, R. I. P. Brad
i like how they put Brad's voice in the song. theyre paying tribute their friend doing what he loved.
i love this song and whenever brads voice comes on i get shivers. the sublime spirit lives!
lbda never ceases to amaze...this is not like their first cd but still as chill as ever
好不容易才找到这首歌啊。开始是从‘Joey’的主题曲听到，感觉很有活力的一首歌，只是听不太懂。从google.com搜索找到这里看了歌词，的确是很有活力的一首歌。这个乐队原来的歌没听过，也不知道Bradley。不过祝愿乐队做出更好的新歌。^_^
