You Are My Sunshine

It was late when I got up yesterday in the evening.


Since my days are idle now, I got up a few times and checked my idle phone to fine empty messages and phone calls... which only added up to my boredom and I was simply reluctant to get up and feel bored for the rest of the day.


But when I entered my bathroom to freshen up, I heard a little boy but I wasn't not sure which one (since the family who lives next door has four sons), one of them, the cutest one whose about 5 or 6 years old I'm assuming named Brian, was singing...


You are my sunshine,My only sunshine,

You make me happy, When skies are grey,

You never know dear, How much I love you,

Please don't take my sunshine away...


He kept repeating it again and again but kept mixing up the lyrics after that and making up his own words with a mixture of plenty gigglings and laughter with other kids' voices.


:) I can't help but giggle with him while I listen with a grin.


I thank 'him' for making me think of happy things, people I love and especially the person who's in my head the most right now and all that, that brings that smile to my face.


And most of all, to make my day all sunny again after all these unhappy days.

Nothing could tickle my heart and lift it up than to hear a child sing.


And here is 'You Are My Sunshine' by Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan. (Which doesn't sound so happy as I thought the song should be. Enjoy :))


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 not 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
