Time of ReflectionSong for Guy - Elton John

Song“You are my sunshine”

"YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE"

You are my sunshine My only sunshine

You make me happy When skies are grey

You'll never know dearHow much I love you

Please don't take my sunshine away

The other night dearAs I lay sleeping

I dreamed I held you in my arms When I awoke, dear

I was mistaken So I hung my head and cried.

You are my sunshine My only sunshine

You make me happy When skies are grey

You'll never know dearHow much I love you

Please don't take my sunshine away

So let the sunshine inFace it with a grinSmilers never lose

And frowners never winSo let the sun shine in

Face it with a grinOpen up your heart

And let the sunshine in

My mother told me something That little girls should know

It's all about the devilAnd I've learned to hate him so

I know he'll be unhappyCause I'll never wear a frownMaybe if we keep on smiling

He'll get tired of hangin' round

So let the sunshine inFace it with a grinSmilers never lose

And frowners never winSo let the sunshine in

Face it with a grinOpen up your heart

And let the sun shine in
