You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, You make me happy, when skies are grey, You'll never know dear, how much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away The other night dear, as I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you in my arms When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken So I hung my head and I cried. You are my sunshine, my only sunshine You make me happy when skies are grey You'll never know dear, how much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away I'll always love you and make you happy, If you could only, only feel the same. But in your heart dear, oh you love another And you have shattered all of my dreams You are my sunshine, my only sunshine You make me happy when skies are grey You'll never know dear, how much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away So please don't take my sunshine away
