(intro) (3x) (verse 1) In the daytime, Time for cele-bration. No use lookin' down, If it's over here. It's a world, A new cre-ation, And the golden light of the moning, Makes it easy to comb your hair. And the love of the child; It's the time of the year. (verse 2) In the daytime, You can move a mountain. With a blink of your eye; Now it's over here, now it's over there. It's a world, With no compli-cations. And the curtains on the window, Start blowing like your hair. And the love that I feel, 'Cos it's the time of the year. (middle 8) Mysterious moon, found me cryin' in the dark; Heard my footsteps on the stairs. Mysterious moon found me cryin', But the sun dried my tears; showed he cares. (instrumental) (7x) (verse 3) In the daytime, Time for cele-bration. No use lookin' down; If it's over here. It's a world, A whole nation, Now the white boats have landed, And the innocent are here. So dream for the child, 'Cos it's the time of the year. (outro) (3x)
