My Sunshine

When you tell me you love me,
It sends shivers down my spine.
You found the key to this heart,
And changed who I used to be.

When your gone it makes me ache.
I know I walked astray,
And I know I made mistakes,
But you helped me find my way.

It used to hurt to be a man,
But you gave me an outlet for my feelings,
You give me a reason to be happy,
And saved me from myself.

"You are my sunshine,
My only sunshine."
