The other night dear
As I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you
In my arms
When I awoke dear
I was mistaken
and I hung my head and 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'll always love you
and make you happy
If you will only
Say the same
but if you leave me
To have another
You'll regret it all someday
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
You told me once dear
You really loved me
and no one else could come between
but now you've left me and I've got nothing
You have tattered all my dreams
You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When skies are grey
You'll never know just how much I love you
I do
Please don't take my sunshine away x4
Please please don't take my sunshine away from me x3
Please please don't take my sunshine away from me
