You Are My Sunshine lyrics
by Jimmie Davis
[Chorus]
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
So please don't take my sunshine away
[Verse 1]
The other night dear, as I laid sleeping
I dreamt I held you in my tired arms
When I awoke dear, I was mistaken
So I bowed my head and I cried
[Chorus]
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
So please don't take my sunshine away
[Verse 2]
I've always loved you, made you happy
And nothin' else could come between
But now you've left me to love another
And you've shattered all my dreams
[Chorus]
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
So please don't take my sunshine away
[Outro]
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
So please don't take my sunshine away
