Sunshine Song

The inside cry...


The other night dear as I lay dreaming
I dreamt that you were by my side
Came disillusion when I awoke dear
You were gone and then I 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
So please don't take my sunshine away

You told me once dear there'd be no other
That no one else could come between
But now you've left me to love another
You have broken all my dreams...

That was a song, which everybody sang when they were little. We rose our tiny arms, and bent our back to make a perfect 'O' shape when singing along with the music, under the instruction of the kindergarden school teachers. I thought it was a happy songs until I had a look at the lyrics yesterday, gingerly.

It used the simpliest words to present the pain somebody been through, losing the beloved one, I guess?! Then, it was composed with a happy-sounding music. Surprisingly,the two contrasting emotions matched together, following by the production of a grieving AND delightful song?

Yeah, too many times in life, we laugh;ignoring the tears that were hidden somewhere.
