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 The other night, dear, while I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you here in my arms When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken And 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 Oh, please, don't take my sunshine away, away
