The other night dear, as I lay sleepin'
I dreamt I held you in my arms
When I awoke dear, I was mistaken
And I hunged my head and cried

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

You told me once dear, that you really love me
And no one else could come between
But now you've left me and you love another
You have shattered all my dreams

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
