Never in your sun by Stevie Wonder - Lyrics and Translation

VERSE

Never in your sun

Stevie Wonder

Never in your sun

Song byStevie Wonder

in AlbumIn Square Circle

I met her at lover¡¯s park

One rainy April Monday

Smiling soft and warm as on

A clear December Sunday

Wearing taffeta and lace

That matched her braided hair

With their coraled beads that sang to me

She said ¡° hi ¡± and asked me why

Was I looking with sorrow

When there were much brighter days

In store for me tomorrow

I looked up at her and smiled

And said, why I don¡¯t know

But would she agree, to stay with me

And she said

Never in your sun, she said

Never in your sun, then she said

I will only come

In your pouring rain to relieve the pain So if you are at lover¡¯s park

And someone looks with sorrow

Ask them why are they so sad

When sunshine¡¯s theirs tomorrow

They¡¯ll reply they don¡¯t know why

And ask you please to stay

¡¯til the end of time, and when they¡¯re fine

Be kind and say

Never in your sun, just tell them

Never in your sun, then say

I will only come

In your pouring rain, to relieve the pain, never, ever

Never in your sun, never in your sun, believe that

I will only come

In your pouring rain to relieve the pain
