i hope you not a butterfly thats gonna spread its wings and fly away
i hope your not the moving type thats gonna up and pack and walk away
i need you to be there
to treat me like you care
i need you to be where
any where i need you
i need you to my self
not there with anyone else
i need you next to me for always

could you be my sunshine [could you be my sunshine]
on a cloudy day [on a cloudy day]
could you be my yellow [could you be my yellow]
when im feeling grey [when im feeling grey]

i hope your not the type thats jumps into the car and twist the keys goodbye
i hope your not the type thats quick to say goodbye and not give it a chance

i need you to be there
to treat me like you care
i need you to be where
any where i need you
i need you to my self
not there with anyone else
i need you next to me for always

could you be my sunshine [could you be my sunshine]
on a cloudy day [on a cloudy day]
could you be my yellow [could you be my yellow]
when im feeling grey [when im feeling grey]
could you be my river [could you be my river]
and help me float away [and help me float away]
could you be my sunshine [could you be my sunshine]
on a cloudy day [on a cloudy day]

could you be my sunshine [could you be my sunshine]
on a cloudy day [on a cloudy day]
could you be my yellow [could you be my yellow]
when im feeling grey [when im feeling grey]
could you be my river [could you be my river]
and help me float away [and help me float away]
could you be my sunshine [could you be my sunshine]
on a cloudy day [on a cloudy day]
