I put on my morning harmony It always feels so good in a major key The sun was singing a steamy moonlight serenade While the moon was creeping off Looking for a little shade
The tea was begging to be steeped And the shower was hissing for some attention But the only thing that was on my mind Was lunch in the sun
I stepped outside to saddle up Ben He was three and a half and stood sixteen hands We made our way to a warren I knew Where old Fiver told stories in the early afternoon
The primroses had all begun to bloom And the sweet scent of clover was in the air For El-ahrairah this was a perfect day For lunch in the sun
Oh, I daydreamed away Glenn Miller flew right above me Conducting the clouds to some long lost tune From Heaven the horns washed through me
And then I knew it was time to go But I said to myself as I trotted on home It couldn't have been a better day For lunch in the sun
