Oh, sunny day
Melting away
Oh sunny day
Melting away
Some say she was good for no one
But I say
She was bad for every one
Help me now’ cause I feel
I’m fallin’
Maybe somehow
You will hear me callin’

Baby you didn’t take everything
If you want it
You know I would bring
All the love you left behind
When you said goodbye.

Oh sunny day
Melting away
Oh sunny day
Melting away

Inside she was really nothing
I was a fool and I gave her everything
Help me now
‘Cause I feel I’m fallin’
Maybe somehow you will hear me callin’
Baby you didn’t mean what you said
Things that you told me
Are still in my head
And though it’s too late
I realise all you did was lie.

Oh sunny day
Melting away
Oh sunny day
Falling away

About Lyrics and Sunny Day by Free

The lyrics to Sunny Day are just the words, phrases, verses and chorus that Free used when the song was created in 1970. The lyrics to Sunny Day have both easy-to-spot meanings and hidden metaphors that have been discussed by the music press and fans, but only Free and any collaborators know all of the inspirations for the song.

If you like etymology or breaking apart phrases and words, it is easy to understand the lyrics to Sunny Day by Free. The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to Sunny Day" means the words set to the music of Sunny Day, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by Free. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics. Hence, by this analysis of word structure, you could say that the lyric to Sunny Day and the lyrics to Sunny Day are both one and the same thing. None of this talk about the word Lyrics is really relevant to fans of Free who came here looking just for the lyrics to Sunny Day, but we feel it is still fun to learn what's behind commonly used words and lyrics in songs.
