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
