[Hook:]
|
Rain or shine sleet or snow
|
You're the reason why I ain't gon' go
|
Cause I'm playing mine high and low
|
Ain't afraid to let the whole world know
|
|
Hello, my love I heard a kiss from you
|
Red magic satin playing near too (near too)
|
All through the morning rain I gaze
|
The sun doesn't shine (doesn't shine)
|
Rainbows and waterfalls run through my mind (run through my mind)
|
|
In the garden I see west purple showers, bells and tea
|
Orange birds and river cousins dressed in green
|
(Cousin dress in green)
|
Pretty music I hear so happy and loud (happy and loud)
|
Blue flower echo from a cherry cloud, baby
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
A present from you
|
Strawberry letter twenty two (22)
|
A present from you
|
Strawberry letter twenty two (22)
|
|
Rain or shine sleet or snow
|
You're the reason why I ain't gon' go
|
Cause I'm playing mine high and low
|
Ain't afraid to let the whole world know
|
|
Feel sunshine sparkle pink and blue (hey yeah)
|
Playgrounds will laugh if you try to ask
|
(You try to ask)
|
Is it cool? is it cool?
|
If you arrive and don't see me (Yeah)
|
I'm going to be with my baby (my baby)
|
I am free, I am free
|
|
Flying in her arms (her arm)
|
Over the sea (Over the sea)
|
Stained window, yellow candy screen (Candy screen)
|
See speaker of kite velvet roses diggin' freedom flight
|
(Oh freedom flight)
|
Diggin' freedom flight (freedom flight)
|
|
A present from you
|
Strawberry letter twenty two (22)
|
A present from you
|
Strawberry letter twenty two (22)
|
|
Rain or shine sleet or snow
|
You're the reason why I ain't gon' go
|
Cause I'm playing mine high and low
|
Ain't afraid to let the whole world know
|
[repeat]
|
|
A present from you
|
Strawberry letter twenty two (22)
|
A present from you
|
Strawberry letter twenty two (22)
|
|
Rain or shine sleet or snow
|
You're the reason why I ain't gon' go
|
Cause I'm playing mine high and low
|
Ain't afraid to let the whole world know
|
