24 little hours
Brought the sun and the flowers
Where there used to be rain
My yesterday was blue
Today I'm a part of you
My lonely nights are through
Since you said you were mine
What a difference a day makes
There's a rainbow before me
Skies above can't be stormy
Since that moment of bliss, that thrilling kiss
It's heaven when you find romance on your menu
What a difference a day makes
And the difference is you
