"You Are My Sunshine" lyrics

"You Are My Sunshine"
(originally by The Pine Ridge Boys)

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 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
And nothing else could come between
But if you leave me to love another
You'll have shattered all of my dreams

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


Writer(s): Jimmie Davis
