You Are My Sunshine You Are My Sunshine ()-The Civil Wars 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 dreamed 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 all the blame Oh 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 Oh please don't take my sunshine away Oh please don't take my sunshine away
