Music & Lyrics by Kareem Salama
V1
I dream about better days but it’s cold can’t see through the fog on the window
Snow piled up like my debt won’t melt away.
I’m not the kind of guy who needs a perfect life but a perfect night I’d like
Just to breathe easy every once in a while
The same in wealth or less; in health or sickness; but like the rest I love those
Sun rays and fun days after I pray for those summer days
I dream about better days but it’s cold can’t see through the fog on the window
Snow piled up like my debt won’t melt away.
I’m not the kind of guy who needs a perfect life but a perfect night I’d like
Just to breathe easy every once in a while
The same in wealth or less; in health or sickness; but like the rest I love those
Sun rays and fun days after I pray for those summer days
CHORUS
Picnics, Sunshine, Oh my
It’s already summertime
Winter was tough to stand but I’m still standing
Put the cold in my sweet tea
Take this coat give me friends and family
Laugh and smile; coolness in my eyes
As I thank God for Picnics and Sunshine
Picnics, Sunshine, Oh my
It’s already summertime
Winter was tough to stand but I’m still standing
Put the cold in my sweet tea
Take this coat give me friends and family
Laugh and smile; coolness in my eyes
As I thank God for Picnics and Sunshine
V2
I love to run around barefoot in the summer rain I can’t explain
I don’t complain about winter but I love those summer days
Springs fine too but there’s something sweet about that total change
From dry to rain from pain to smiling easy right at you
The same in wealth or less; in health or sickness; but like the rest I love those
Sun rays and fun days after I pray for those summer days
I love to run around barefoot in the summer rain I can’t explain
I don’t complain about winter but I love those summer days
Springs fine too but there’s something sweet about that total change
From dry to rain from pain to smiling easy right at you
The same in wealth or less; in health or sickness; but like the rest I love those
Sun rays and fun days after I pray for those summer days
CHORUS
BRIDGE
I love those summer days. I love those summer nights
Its picnics by the lake and sparklers in July
It’s the dream come true after the dreams fell through
It’s the evenings under the stars with you
I love those summer days. I love those summer nights
Its picnics by the lake and sparklers in July
It’s the dream come true after the dreams fell through
It’s the evenings under the stars with you
CHORUS (2x)

DID YOU KNOW? Did you know that the song “Picnics and Sunshine” was inspired, in part, by the writings of Baldassare Castiglione in The Book of the Courtier. In The Book of the Courtier Castiglione describes the many qualities a noble person must possess. Among these noble qualities is the ability to maintain a pleasant nature in good times and tough times. Castiglione says: “...in sickness, as one that was sound, and in adversity, as one that was most fortunate.”
"The same...in wealth or less...in health or sickness...” – Picnics and Sunshine
"The same...in wealth or less...in health or sickness...” – Picnics and Sunshine
