Makaton - COVER ME IN SUNSHINE - Singing Hands

This was one of the songs we taught our Makaton signing choir in March. It's a lovely, positive song by Pink and her daughter Willow about good times coming! Just what we need to get us through the remainder of lockdown.

Here's the lyrics and Makaton sign transcription:

I've been dreaming of friendly faces (DREAM / FRIEND / FACE)
I got so much time to kill (LOTS / TIME)
Just imagine people laughing (IMAGINE / PEOPLE / LAUGH)
I know some day we will (KNOW / DAY / WILL)
And even if it's far away (FUTURE)
Get me through another day (HELP ME / DAY)

Cover me in sunshine (SUNSHINE)
Shower me with good times (BRING / GOOD / TIMES)
Tell me that the world's been spinning since the beginning (TALK / WORLD / *GESTURE SPINNING / LONG TIME AGO)
And everything will be alright (EVERYTHING / OK)
Cover me in sunshine (SUNSHINE)

From a distance all these mountains (FAR / MOUNTAINS)
Are just some tiny hills (HILLS)
Wildflowers, they keep living (FLOWERS / CONTINUE / GROW)
While they're just standing still (continue the GROW sign slowly)
I've been missing yesterday (SAD / YESTERDAY)
But what if there's a better place? (WHAT / BETTER / FUTURE)

Cover me in sunshine
Shower me with good times
Tell me that the world's been spinning since the beginning
And everything will be alright
Cover me in sunshine
Shower me with good times
Tell me that the world's been spinning since the beginning
And everything will be alright
Cover me in sunshine

Cover me in sunshine
Shower me with good times
Tell me that the world's been spinning since the beginning
And everything will be alright
Cover me in sunshine
