I believe in sunny days
Where rain clouds are far away
And there's nothing bad to say
In my own backyard

Where the grass is always green
Like nothing you've ever seen
And I'm peaceful and serene
In my own backyard

Everything is going fast
Try to make the happy last
Gotta slow the world down just a bit

When you feel like turning blue
And you don't know what to do
There is good right there for you
In your own backyard

Everything is going fast
Try to make the happy last
Gotta slow the world down just a bit

You may have to look up high
You may have to look down low
But my friend you gotta know
That all you really need is
Who you are
In your own backyard
