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

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

i'll always love you and make you happy

if you will only say the same

but if you leave me and love another

you'll regret it all someday

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 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

please don't take my sunshine away

no please don't take my sunshine away
