Darlin' Raise The Shade (Let The Sun Shine In)    (1971)

Darlin' raise the shade and let that sun shine in
I want to see all of your beauty
The way you loved me last night and the way you did
For us to be apart would be a pity

It's so good to feel a woman that is real
Love like ours just can't be wrong
Get up and raise the shade, hold me a little closer, babe
We've been in darkness much too long

You have brightened up my world like pretty sunshine
And I want you here to love me all the time, all the time

Oh darlin' raise the shade and let the sun shine in
I want to see all of your loveliness
Love me once again the way you did last night
I tremble at the thought of your tenderness

It's so good to feel a woman that is real
Love like ours just can't be wrong
Get up and raise the shade, hold me a little closer, babe
We've been in darkness much too long

You have brightened up my world like pretty sunshine
And I want you here to love me all the time, all the time
Get up and raise the shade, hold me a little closer, baby
We've been in darkness much too long

You have brightened up my world like pretty sunshine
And I want you here to love me all the time, all the time
