This is about the common juxtaposition between happiness and sadness.
I had only the intro and half of the first verse in my head for two months, not being able to add anything at all. Then, I spoke to Anna about it and got the theme/idea of rain in my head. The following night, I finished the rest of the song: verses, chorus, bridge and all.
I spent midnight to 5 am recording it (because my head was probably working really slowly by then) and this is the result.

LYRICS:
Sometimes I look up to the changing sky
Watching rainclouds slowly drifting by
I think of you wherever you are
and I try to forget our last goodbye
But a lie like that can only take
a second to deny
Rain drip-drops on my windowpane
Don't think I'll see you again
But I know that any day I can escape with you
To another time, another place by
Thinkin' bout those Sunny Days
Soakin' up some summer rays
Everything just feels ok with never-ending weekends
I think about those moonlit nights
Cruisin' the city and seein' the sights
Even remember our dumb little fights,
cuz' you know you were my best friend
And now I look up to the shifting sky
Watching darkened clouds go drifting by
Feeling you no matter how far
Hearts beat-beat with the tapping of feet
They dance around and so they meet
the memories that are always so sweet
sung upon a melody
Rain drip-drops and I feel the pain
Don't think that I'll see you again,
but I know that any day I can escape with you
to another time, another place by
Thinkin' Sunny Days (bye)
The dappled sunlight upon your face (bye)
Goin' just about anyplace
Just you and me, just you and me
But though it's in my mind
I feel like you're really here with me
And I know that it's probably a dream
Still I hope you can hear me
Far away and over the sea
I feel like you do
Oh I
Think about those Sunny Days
the dappled sunlight upon your face
When everything was alright / just ok
and everything seemed to make sense
And now we've gone our separate ways
(but) know in your heart I'll stay
And although I'd never say it
You'll always be my best friend
:) cool!! and :( sad
