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 hung 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. So let the sunshine in Face it with a grin Smilers never lose And frowners never win So let the sunshine in Face it with a grin Open up your heart and let the sunshine in. My mommy told me something That little girls should know It's all about the devil And I've learned to hate him so I know he'll be unhappy 'Cause I'll never wear a frown Maybe if we keep on smiling He'll get tired of hangin' round. So let the sunshine in Face it with a grin Smilers never lose And frowners never win So let the sunshine in Face it with a grin Open up your heart and let the sunshine in. So let the sunshine in Face it with a grin Smilers never lose And frowners never win So let the sunshine in Face it with a grin Open up your heart and let the sunshine in.
