And they found me here and pulled me
My only sunshine
With his feet inside your shoes?
Where I wrote
And in a story told she was a little girl
And we plotted out my death
You make me happy, oh when skies are gray
Here is where you rest
And it rose like thunder
Clapped under our hands
But you must hold inside yourself eternally
And sang into your machine
You are my sunshine
I was determined in Chicago
And I settled for a telephone
Well I drag your ghost across the country
Does he walk around all day at school
Worried, you smoke too many cigarettes
And gray, and gray
Looking down every few steps
Your neck that is your favorite to be touched?
Oh, does he know that place below
Does he lay awake listening to your breath?
And does he cry through broken sentences
And it stretched for centuries
To burn me they reminded me of yours
From the space between your bed and walls?
You are my sunshine
In every city, memories would whisper
That I love you far too much?
But I dug my teeth into my knees
Is he coughing now on a bathroom floor?
She had eyes bright enough
Where a secret was concealed
Inside it's open chest with it's hands stretched
Towards the calendar hanging itself
There's a few that stayed
A thousand more you won't ever see
And I kissed a girl with a broken jaw
To pretend he walks with you
To a diary entry's end
But I will not weep for those dying days
You make me happy, oh when skies are gray
And does he sing to you incessantly
Well the clock's heart it hangs
My only sunshine
For every speck of tile there's
In a red-rouge, sun-bruised field
For all the ones who've left
And there were rows of ripe tomatoes
That her father gave to her
