You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

You make me happy when skies are gray

You'll never know dear how much I love you

Please don't take my sunshine away.

The other night dear as I was sleeping

I dreamed I held you in my arms.

When I awoke dear I was mistaken

And I hung my head and I cried.



You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

You make me happy when skies are gray

You'll never know dear how much I love you

Please don't take my sunshine away.

You told me once dear

That you really loved me 

And no one else could come between

But now you've left me

And you love another

You have shattered all my dreams



You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

You make me happy when skies are gray

You'll never know dear how much I love you

Please don't take my sunshine away.
