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

And I hung my head, and cry

I'll always love you, and make you happy

If you will only say the same
But if you leave me, to love another
You'll regret it all someday


You told me once dear, you really loved me
And no-one else could come between

And now you've left me, to 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
