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
you are my sunshine my only sunshine
you make me happy when skies are grey
you 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 will only say the same
but if you leave me and love another
you'll regret it all someday
you are my sunshine my only sunshine
you make me happy when skies are grey
you never know dear how much i love you
please don't take my sunshine away
oh oh my sunshine my only sunshine
you make me happy when skies are grey
you never know dear how much i love you
please don't take my sunshine away
please don't take my sunshine away
no please don't take my sunshine away
