MY SUNSHINE

[Verse 1] Good morning, sunshine I open my eyes just to find yours Waitin’ for your light to fill the room And baby, there you are—just like before You rise so soft, Just like the day we met And once again... You steal my breath away [Pre-Chorus 1] Last night, I watched you drift to sleep The world fell quiet, the dark ran deep You kissed the night goodbye Still, your glow stayed close to me [Chorus] You’re my sunshine You don’t just light the sky You light my soul, my reason why Oh, you shine in ways the heavens never could You’re my sunshine Not just warmth upon my skin You’re the fire I feel within And once again... You steal my breath away [Verse 2] You speak, and storms inside me fade Your voice—a song I’d never trade You move like poetry in time And every word you say just rhymes You change the air With every step you take And once again... You steal my breath away [Pre-Chorus 2] And when your eyes begin to close It’s like the sky begins to glow You kiss your man goodnight And I still feel it in my soul [Chorus 2] You’re my sunshine You don’t just light the day You burn the dark, you lead the way Oh, you shine in ways no star could ever do You’re my sunshine Not a flame that fades too fast You’re the light that always lasts And once again... You steal my breath away [Bridge] Is it the sun, or is it you? I lose track—the light feels true One paints the skies in gold and blue But only you can shine right through [Final Chorus] You’re my sunshine You light the world and all I see But most of all, you light in me A fire so deep, it never slips away Oh, you’re my sunshine Almond eyes and island grace Girl, I find my home in your embrace And once again... You steal my breath away [Outro] Yeah, you... You’ll always be My sunshine!
