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 Oh please, don't take my sunshine away The other night dear, as I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you in my arms But when I woke dear, well I was mistaken And I hung my head, I hung my head and cried I said you're my sunshine, my only sunshine You make me happy when skies are grey You'll never know dear, how much I love you Oh please, please don't take my sunshine away The other night dear, as I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you in my arms But when I woke dear, well I was mistaken And I hung my head, I hung my head and cried You told me once dear, that you really loved me You said no one else could come between Now what did you mean? But now you've left me baby in love another You have shattered, you have shattered all my dreams Don't you know that you're my sunshine, my only sunshine You make me happy, you make me happy when skies are grey But you'll never know dear, how much, how much I love you Please, I'm begging you please, oh please Don't, don't take my sunshine, don't take it away Don't take my sunshine away
