The other night, dear
As I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
But when I woke, dear
I was mistaken
So I hung my head and 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
I'll always love you
And make you happy
If you would only do the same
If you leave me
To love another
You'll regret it all someday
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'd never hurt me
That nothing else could come between
But now you've left me
And 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
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
Please don't take my sunshine away
