Intro:

   (x3),     

Verse 1:

               
In the daytime,
                      
Time for cele-bration.
                   
No use lookin' down,
                   
If it's over here.

            
It's a world,
               
A new cre-ation,
        
And the golden light of the moning,
                          
Makes it easy to comb your hair.
                   
And the love of the child;
                         
It's the time  of the year.

Verse 2:

              
In the daytime,
                        
You can move a mountain.
                         
With a blink of your eye;
                                      
Now it's over here, now it's over there.

             
It's a world,
                       
With no compli-cations.
        
And the curtains on the window,
                       
Start blowing like your hair.
                   
And the love that I feel,
                             
'Cos it's the time  of the year.

Middle 8:

                                     
 Mysterious moon, found me cryin' in the dark;
                                 
 Heard my footsteps on the stairs.
                        
Mysterious moon found me cryin',
                                         
But the sun dried my tears; showed he cares.

   (x7),     

Verse 3:

               
In the daytime,
                      
Time for cele-bration.
                    
No use lookin' down;
                   
If it's over here.

            
It's a world,
              
A whole nation,
        
Now the white boats have landed,
                    
And the innocent are here.
                
So dream for the child,
                             
'Cos it's the time  of the year.
