Day Eight

A song to match my mood?

this would be so much easier if i was my sister. she has a song for every moment of her life.

hmmmm...

this morning doug was singing the chorus to "you are my sunshine" (except he would sing 'you are my son (pause) shine) to jaxon before he left for work. i love how doug spends time with jaxon every morning. he'll cuddle with him and play and talk, and even change his diaper if jaxon needs it, before he tears himself away to go to work. anyway, now the song is stuck in my head. also, who knew this is such a melancholy song? with words like sunshine and happy, you would think it would be more upbeat. i think we'll just stick with the chorus.

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
