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 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 loved me And no one else could come between. But not you've left me and you love another You have shattered all of 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
