You Are My Sunshine
Kelly T Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are my lucky star
I saw you from afar
Two lovely eyes at me they were gleaming
Beaming I was star struck
You're all my lucky charms I'm lucky in your arms
You've opened heaven's portal here on earth for this poor mortal
You are my lucky star
You are my lucky star
I saw you from afar
If Garbo is a glamorous creature
You're a four star feature
Though you are never seen
Up on a movie screen




You are my Shearer, Crawford, Hepburn, Harlow and my Garbo
You are my lucky star

I do the same with my 10 year old son
Even in just passing each other in the hallway at home
I say out loud You are my sunshine!
He says My only sunshine!
Me You make me happy 🎶
Him When skies are grey🎶
Or I say it as a question
Me: Are you my sunshine?
Him: Your only sunshine?
Me: Do you make me happy?
Him: (he smiles) Even when skies are grey ❤



@rezekiangelia478

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 gray
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 allow another
You'll have shattered all of my dreams
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

Sang this song to my baby girl everyday she lived. She passed in my arms when she was 7 months old. From a tragic cause. I sang to her then as well, during the last moment I held her body in my arms. Your voice is heavenly. Thank you for this
