You Are My Sunshine
Morgane Stapleton Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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, while I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you here in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
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
If you will only say the same
But if you leave me to love another
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
Morgane Stapleton's song "You Are My Sunshine" is a classic love song that expresses the deep love and affection one person has for another. The song is sung from the perspective of someone who sees their significant other as their "sunshine." The lyrics "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are grey," expresses the idea that this special person brings joy and happiness into their life, even during the darkest times.
The song goes on to express the singer's fear of losing their love. They have a dream of holding their partner in their arms, but when they wake up, their significant other is not there, and they realize it was only a dream. This leads to a feeling of sadness and longing, and the singer begs their love not to take their sunshine away.
The final verse expresses the singer's commitment to their love and happiness, as long as their partner reciprocates the same emotions. However, there is also a warning that if their significant other were to leave them, they would regret it someday.
Overall, the song is a beautiful testament to the power of love and the feelings that come with it.

My Daddy always called me an text me nearly every morning... Goodmorning my Sunshine. So hearing this song for the first time yesterday, it brought me to my knees. 2 years an 2 months and 4 days since he gained his wings. An I'm still on the ocean of emotion. I forever will ride those waves. I miss him so very much 😭😭😭. This is such a beautiful cover.
