Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- Life didn’t seem real
The world seemed terribly wrong
How different I feel
Since you happened along
Chorus
Out of the dawn there came a sunbeam
Out of the dawn a dream came true
Wandering on I find that sunbeam
Lingering on the long day through
Please tell me who’d ever think
My skies would ever be blue?
Who’d ever think I’d need somebody like you?
But out of the dawn there came a sunbeam
And a beautiful dream came true
- Skies never were blue
Until you wandered my way
Dear, since I found you
Skies have never been gray
