Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Surrounded by women watching the TV
I asked him how'd he get to be so lucky
He said, "Some men have it and some men don't
Now hush 'cause I'm watching my favorite show"
[Verse 2]
Elsa was from Germany
She loved my songs, she was always smiling
She said she had seen all kinds of war
And she used to play guitar but she don't know how anymore
[Refrain]
Lord, don't let me forget all the good things that I know
Yeah, the power and the loss of self control
How the warm sun feels on my auburn hair
When I first heard "I love you" out of thin air
Lord, don't let me forget all the loved ones that I know
Lord, when I die, will it feel like I'm alone?
So don't look at me sad and say I'm not all there
Who's gonna push me in my rolling chair?
[Verse 3]
Frankie said to play some Patsy Cline
And I swear it took her back to a time
You Are My Sunshine or anything she knew
I watched it as her blue eyes grew
[Verse 4]
So come visit me or take me somewhere new
Just sing me the songs that remind me of my youth
Or come sit with me and tell me what's going on with you
We can talk about how the years just flew
[Refrain]
Lord, help me to be patient
Lord, help me to be brave and kind
'Cause I know that I'm limited on time
Lord, show me to be giving and don't let me lose my mind
Let company not be hard to find
[Verse 5]
So when my time runs out, will you hold my hand?
As I journey to an unknown land
And just like the wind, you won't see me, but I'll be there
Don't forget me and my auburn hair
Don't forget me and my auburn hair
[Outro]
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
Please don't take my sunshine away
Please don't take my sunshine away
