22 May 11 - 04:47 PM (#3158832) Subject: Lyr Req: You Took My Sunshine From: moongoddess I have been trying to find the lyrics to a Curly Seckler tune called "You Took My Sunshine". No luck. But I did find a YouTube video of him singing the song. I have the lyrics below that I wrote down as I listened to the song. There are a couple of lines (in parentheses) that I just can't seem to figure out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Diana You Took My Sunshine Curly Seckler I hate to see the rain fall on my windowpane. It reminds me of the day you went away. (Now far for me to judge) and pray for your return And help me drive the rain clouds away. Chorus: You took my sunshine……………from me, But you left a sweet memory. (Oh the happy times we made), but I still love you yet And I wonder if you ever think of me. Your face is all I see, do you ever think of me. Are you wishing you were with me just once more. Could you ever be the same as the day I changed your name. Could you love me as you did before. |

I don't think your chorus is missing any words, Diana. You have it right. |

I hate to see the rain fall on my windowpane. It reminds me of the day you went away. Now all I do is yearn and pray for your return* And help drive these rainy clouds away. CHORUS: You took my sunshine [all?] with you, But you left a sweet memory Of the happy times we've met, but I still love you yet, And I wonder if you ever think of me. 2. In dreams, your face is all I see. Do you ever think of me? Are you wishing you were with me just once more? Could you ever be the same as the day I changed your name? Could you love me as you did before? * It would improve the grammar to sing "and pray that you'll return." |
