The other night dear as I laid sleeping I dreamed I held you in my arms
When I awoke dear I was mistaken and I hung my head and cry

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

I'll always love you and make you happy if you will only say the same
But if you leave me to love another you'll regret it all some day

You are my sunshine my only sunshine...

[ steel ]
You told me once dear you really loved me and no one else could come between
But now you've left me and love another you have shattered all my dreams

You are my sunshine my only sunshine...
