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 lay sleeping
I dreamt I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried
...
I'll always love you
and make you happy
If you will only say the sameBut if you leave me and love another
You'll regret it all some dayYou are my sunshine
my only sunshine
You make me happy
when skies are grayYou'll never know dear
how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
...
In all my dreams dear
you seem to leave me
When I awake my poor heart aches
So when you come back
and make me happy
I'll forgive, and take all the blameYou are my sunshine
my only sunshineYou make me happy
when skies are gray
You'll never know dear
how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
Please don't take my sunshine away
