i love this song even though the lyrics rhythm sounds like a 2020 song help

leisure, a leisure suit is nothing. It’s nothing to be proud of.

I used to think You Are My Sunshine was a happy song until I recently read all the lyrics. I never realised how sad the story is. So with that in mind, in this version I leave out 2 of the 3 original verses and just focus on the outcome of the original lyrics, by putting the remaining verse and chorus in the past tense.

Thanks for your time.

Words (for this version)

You were my sunshine
My only sunshine
You made me happy
When all the sky were grey
You'll never know just
How much I loved you
You took my sunshine away

The other night
As I lay sleeping
I dreamt I held you in my arms so tight
But when I awoke
I was mistaken
And I hung my head and I cried

Break

You were my sunshine
My only sunshine
And you made me happy
When all the skies were grey
You'll never know just
How much I loved you
......

Original Lyrics as sung by Jimmie Davis in 1939

The other night dear, as I lay sleeping,
I dreamed I held you in my arms,
but when I woke dear, I was mistaken,
and 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 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 to love another
you’ll regret it all some day

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
you make me happy, when skies are grey,
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
that no one else could come between
but now you’ve left me and love another
you have shattered all my dreams.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
you make me happy, when skies are grey,
you’ll never know dear, how much I love you,
please don’t take my sunshine away.
