At the start of each day
I dread what I face
And the race that is runnin' outside
I jump back in bed
And I cover my head

But that only blocks out the light
No my trouble's still there
You know it hangs in the air
I know things are comin' my way
There's things I must do
But I hide in my room
And I hope that it all goes away

Come on mama won't you come here quick
I feel like I'm going insane
I need the good lovin' grace
Of your sweet smilin' face

There'll be light in my life once again
Now I'm biting my lip
You know I'm losin' my grip
I feel like I'm slippin' away
She comes along
She'll be hummin' a song
Like sunlight she can brighten my day
Ain't it so good just to see her now
Walkin up the street
You know that she's comin to love you
And lovin' you, that's just what you need
To set you free

Yeah the good lovin' grace
Of her sweet smilin' face
Will put light in my life once again
