I hope you're not a butterfly That's gonna spread it's wings and fly away I hope you're not the moving type That's gonna up and pack and walk away I need you to be there to treat me like you care I need you to be where anywhere I need you I need you to myself not lay with anyone else I need you next to me for always Could you be my sunshine on a cloudy day Could you be my yellow when I'm feelin' gray I hope you're not the type To jump into the car and twist the key goodbye I hope you're not the type That's quick to say goodbye and I give it a chance I need you to be there to treat me like you care I need you to be where anywhere I need you I need you to myself not lay with anyone else I need you next to me for always Could you be my sunshine on a cloudy day Could you be my yellow when I'm feelin' gray Could you be my river and help me float away Could you be my sunshine on a cloudy day <♪> Could you be my sunshine on a cloudy day Could you be my yellow when I'm feelin' gray Could you be my river and help me float away Could you be my sunshine on a cloudy day
