You Are My Sunshine (Jimmie Davis cover) Lyrics

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You'll never notice how much I love you
Please, don't take my sunshine away

The other night, dear, as I laid sleeping
I dreamt I held you in my arms
When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
And I hung my head and cried

I'll always love you and make you happy
If you'll only say the same
But if you leave me to love another
You'll regret it all some day

You told me once, dear, you really loved me
And no one else could come between
But now you left and love another
You have shattered all my dreams

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never notice how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
