Lyrics
Walked with no one and talked with no one
Feeling isolated and lonely, avoiding social interactions.
And I had nothing but shadows
Experiencing a lack of substance or fulfillment, surrounded by darkness.
Then one morning you passed
A positive change occurred when the person being addressed entered the speaker's life.
And I brightened at last
The speaker's mood improved significantly upon encountering the person.
Now I greet the day and complete the day
Expressing a newfound joy and completeness with the presence of the person.
With the sun in my heart
The speaker's heart is filled with warmth and positivity.
All my worry blew away
Previous worries vanished, suggesting a positive impact on the speaker's mental state.
When you taught me how to say
The person taught the speaker how to express joy and happiness.
Grab your coat and get your hat
Encouraging the listener to prepare to go out.
Leave your worry on the doorstep
Suggesting leaving behind worries and focusing on the positive.
Just direct your feet
Directing the listener toward a more optimistic path in life.
To the sunny side of the street
Encouraging the listener to move towards a brighter, more positive direction.
Can't you hear a pitter-pat?
Noticing the sound of footsteps and associating it with a happy demeanor.
And that happy tune is your step
Linking a joyful tune to the listener's steps, emphasizing a positive outlook.
Life can be so sweet
Expressing the sweetness and positivity that life can offer.
On the sunny side of the street
Reiterating the benefits of being on the optimistic side of life.
I used to walk in the shade
Reflecting on a past where the speaker lived in a more challenging and gloomy state.
With those blues on parade
Describing a previous period of feeling down or depressed.
But I'm not afraid
Conveying a sense of overcoming fear and embracing positivity.
This Rover crossed over
Referring to a positive change or transformation in the speaker's life.
If I never have a cent
Expressing contentment even without material wealth.
I'd be rich as Rockefeller
Comparing personal richness to that of Rockefeller, emphasizing non-material wealth.
Gold dust at my feet
Metaphorically describing a feeling of abundance and luxury.
On the sunny side of the street
Emphasizing the positive outlook and abundance on the bright side of life.
Grab your street
A playful repetition of the earlier encouragement to seize the positive aspects of life.
