lyrics

I like the autumn sunshine
It doesn't burn my skin
It just casts dramatic shadows
Makes me feel like
It's time to start all over again

I like the winter sunshine
It doesn't happen very often
It paints pretty colours in the sky
Makes me feel like
It's time to start all over again

I like the spring sunshine
And the birds and flowers it brings
Makes me feel like it's almost summer
Then it'll be time
To start all over again

It's time to start all over again
It's time to start all over again
Get up
Wake up
It's time to start all over again

I like the autumn sunshine
It doesn't burn my skin
It just casts dramatic shadows
Makes me feel like
It's time to start all over again

I like the winter sunshine
It doesn't happen very often
It paints pretty colours in the sky
Makes me feel like
It's time to start all over again

It's time to start all over again
It's time to start all over again
Get up
Wake up
It's time to start all over again

He once said he knew that I was 'no shrinking violet' so I decided to be a 'Shrieking Violet'. ... more
