Should we have seen this coming? should we have known? Of all the planets in your orbit, could you feel my draw? Was it you that found me, or the other way ‘round? That first date—that wasn’t a date, I don’t know what you saw Pre chorus You’re the prize in the cereal box You’re the center of my tootsie pop Now we have been together for quite some time. All the changes we’ve gone through in our shared life Only cause me to love you, love you more and more More today than yesterday and all the days before Pre chorus You’re the surf on a perfect day You’re all those things I shouldn’t say Chorus: You are my Sunshine (after the rain) My only Sunshine (after the rain) Your smile is a rainbow Breaking through my darkest day When the world seems against me, I think of that smile And that spark of mischief that lives in your eyes When I’m with you, I’m happy; you always make me laugh My love, I am honored to be your other half Pre Chorus You’re Shakira when she shakes her hips You’re this pithy, clever little quip Chorus: You are my Sunshine (after the rain) My only Sunshine (after the rain) Your smile is a rainbow Breaking through my darkest day Guitar Solo Pre Chorus You are Miles playing “Kind of Blue” You’re the question to the answer 42 Chorus (3Xs): You are my Sunshine (after the rain) My only Sunshine (after the rain) Your smile is a rainbow Breaking through my darkest day

about

When I first met my husband, we gave each other nicknames. Mine was "Buster" and his was "Sunshine". I was just ending a long, unhealthy, relationship. The end of that relationship was bloody, so he was my "Sunshine after the rain".

Fast forward these many years, and our love has only grown as we have grown together. We've been through losses and triumphs and still maintained our sense of humor and he TRULY has a mischievous sparkle in his eye (you can see it in the cover art. That picture was taken shortly after we got together).

Each of the pre-chorus quips are different things from my youth. Who didn't love getting a prize in their cereal boxes? "Kind of Blue" is such a classic jazz album, and as a huge fan of "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", other fans will get the reference to "42".

Tom, this is for you with all my love!
