  • Your dark hair draped across my pillow
    Says I finally got it right
    And as I watch you dreaming, twisted in the sheets
    I can't stop thinking about last night

    Well I've waited so long, so long, so long
    For someone like you
    And as this morning breaks through the window pane
    It reveals the truth

    Baby, you're my sunshine, first light
    Find your way to places that only know lies
    Failed tries and bruised skies
    With hardly time to hold on or be strong, now I'm strong
    'Cause like the dawn you push it all away

    I tell ya, you're my sunshine
    Everybody needs a little sunshine

    Your fingertips, a kiss to this tired face
    It's like I'm young again
    Well I feel beautiful
    But most of all vulnerable since you broke in

    Baby, you're my sunshine, first light
    Find your way to places that only know lies
    Failed tries and bruised skies
    With hardly time to hold on or be strong. now I'm strong
    'Cause like the dawn you push it all away

    I tell ya, you're my sunshine
    Everybody needs a little sunshine

    So won't you take me, take me, take me
    Anywhere and everywhere you go
    All the warmth you bring to this cold heart
    With the slightest touch is enough to know

    Baby, you're my sunshine
    Everybody needs a little sunshine
    Yeah, you're my sunshine
    'Cause like the dawn you push it all away Writer/s: BENJAMIN DANIEL WELLS, CHRISTOPHER BRYANT ROBERTSON, JAMES MICHAEL, JOHN FREDERICK YOUNG, JONATHAN MICHAEL LAWHON
