[Chorus]
I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine
I got a love and I know that it’s all mine, oh, oh-oh
Do what you want, but you're never gonna break me
Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me, oh, oh-oh
I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine
I got a love and I know that it's all mine, oh, oh-oh
Wish that you could, but you ain’t gonna own me
Do anything you want, you can't slow me down
Oh no

I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine
I got a love and I know that it's all mine, oh, oh-oh

Wish that you could, but you ain't gonna own me
Do anything you can to control me, oh, oh no

[Bridge 2]
There’s a place that I go, that nobody knows
Where the rivers flow, and I call it home
And there's no more lies in the darkness there’s light
And nobody cries, there's only butterflies

Take me away
A secret place
A sweet escape
Take me away
Take me away
To better days
Take me away
A hiding place

[Bridge 3]
Take me away
Yeah, you can't control me
You can't control me

[Outro]
The sun is on my side and takes me for a ride
I smile up to the sky, I know I’ll be alright
The sun is on my side and takes me for a ride
I smile up to the sky, I know I'll be alright
