The Civil Wars — You Are My Sunshine lyrics

Lyrics

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
The other night dear,
as I lay sleeping
I dreamt I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried.
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 some day.
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
In my dreams dear,
you seem to leave me When I awake my poor heart pains
So when you come back
and make me happy
I’ll forgive, I’ll take the blame
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
