Mrs Hartley's Washing Day
Written by Alistair Griffin

                                  
The rain goes on and you're a million miles away
                          
It feels like February, it should be May
                         
You try to write the perfect love song
               
It's just too late
                       
It's in your stars, it must be fate

                                   
Bring on the Sun and live those crazy summer nights
                                        
Bring on the Moon and dance until there's no more light
                                  
Forget the rain and find your secret summer place
                                     
Bring on the Sun and put the smile back on your face


So put the work to bed and the kids on ice
Whip up the summer fires, always someone nice
You try to tell her that you love her
So it went wrong
Just tell her summer won't be long


Bring on the Sun and live those crazy summer nights
Bring on the Moon and dance until there's no more light
Forget the rain and find your secret summer place
Bring on the Sun and put the smile back on your face

                                     
And when you go she will be waiting there for you
                                                
You kiss her lips and hold her like you wanted to
                                              
You've found your place and this girl's heart is truly won
                            
The rain's gone home, bring on the Sun


Bring on the Sun and live those crazy summer nights
Bring on the Moon and dance until there's no more light
Forget the rain and find your secret summer place
Bring on the Sun and put the smile back on your face

Bring on the Sun
Bring on the Sun
Bring on the Sun
