A catchy pop song about a guy's devotion to his girl, even though he sometimes finds that women are "a mystery to us men."
lyrics
Will you be my one and only? Will you be my sunshine girl?
Will you be my one and only? My one devotion, my valentine girl
Come on, baby, be my sunshine girl.
Come on, baby, be my sunshine girl.
Whenever clouds would gather round me,
You were there to always make things bright
When I was lost, you always found me
You were the sunshine in my darkest night
Your smiling face would make my heart take flight.
There’s no other girl a round can move me,
The way you catch me with that look in your eye
Since the first time that your smile unglued me.
My heart flutters like a butterfly,
For my affection, no more women need apply.
I don’t know what I’ve done to make you mad at me, like I do now and then
But I would do anything to see that smile on your face
To hear that song in your voice, to watch you dancing for joy,
To see you happy again.
Will you be my one and only? Will you be my sunshine girl?
Will you be my one and only? My one devotion, my valentine girl
Come on, baby, be my sunshine girl.
Come on, baby, be my sunshine girl.
You were more than a breath of fresh air, girl
When you walked into my life one day
When I’m with you, I’m a millionaire, girl
For all the kindness and love you send my way
And now I’m trying hard to find the words to say
Please forgive me for my clumsy ways, girl,
I’ll make it right, just tell me where to begin
I bought some candy and a fresh bouquet, girl
She looked at me and then she started to grin
My heart was jumping, she was laughing again. Ooh . . .
I don’t know what I’ve done to take the hurt away. It’s a mystery to us men
But I would do it again to see that smile on her face
To hear that song in her voice, to watch her dancing for joy,
To see her happy again.
Now she is still my one and only
She is still my sunshine girl
She is still my one and only
My one devotion, my valentine girl
She is still my one and only
She is still my sunshine girl
She is still my one and only
My better half, my little valentine girl
Yeah, baby, you’re my sunshine girl.
Yeah, baby, you’re my sunshine girl.
You will always be my sunshine girl.
