[Verse 1]
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 I cried

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
I'll always love you and make you happy
And nothing else could come between
But if you leave me to love another
You'll have shattered all of my dreams

[Chorus]
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
