The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you in my arms When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken So I bowed my head and I cried 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 Please, don't take my sunshine away I've always loved you and made you happy And nothing else could come between But now you've left me to love another You have shattered all of my dreams 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 Please, don't take my sunshine away
