October 23, 2007 by Dave.
I’ve been playing the soundtrack “O, Brother, Where Art Thou?” for the last five days. Sophia likes the “You Are My Sunshine” song– well at least the chorus. She sings with it every time the song comes on, and sometimes asks me to play it again. Thing is I never realized how depressing that song is. I guess I keep associating the chorus only sung with the Oscar Mayer (??) commercial from the late 70s. LOL! Listen to the rest of it and man is that some of my love life wrapped up in a nutshell.
===========================
The other night dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
But 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
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
You told me once, dear, you really loved me
And no one else could come between
But now you’ve left me and love another
You 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
In all 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 you dear, I’ll take all 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.
