Text Challenge: Natasha Bedingfield - Pocketfull of Sunshine suggested by pairodocs
I got a pocket, got a pocket full of sunshine
I got a love that knows that it's all mine
Do what you want, but you never gonna break me
sticks and stone are never gonna shake me
Take me away (take me away)
A secret place (a secret place)
A sweet escape (a sweet escape)
Take me away (take me away)
Take me away (take me away
To better days (to better days)
Take me away (take me away)
A hiding place (a hiding place)
I got pocket, got a pocket full of sunshine
I got a love that knows that it's all mine
Wish that you could, but you ain't gonna own me
Do anything you can to control me
There's a place that I go
That nobody knows
Where the rivers flow
And I call it home
And there's no more lies
And darkness is light
And nobody cries
There's only butterflies
The sun's on my side
Take me for a ride
I smile up to the sky
I know I'll be alright
