You are My Sunshine Lyrics

By: Jimmie Davis and Charles Mitchell

The original lyrics claimed by some to have been written by Oliver Hood, this heartbreaking song makes for a beautiful lullaby.

 

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.

 

The other night dear, as I lay sleepin’

I dreamed I held you in my arms

when I awoke dear, I was mistaken

so I hung my head and I 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

 

You told me once dear, you really loved me

and no one else could come between us

but now you’ve left me and you love another

and you have shattered all my dreams

 

You are my sunshine, ny 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

but you’ll regret it all some day

 

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

please don’t take my sunshine away
