I came home late
D
With a million thoughts in my head
Bm
Like how I let you slip though my fingers
Bm A
Should've heard the things that I said
A
I was busy looking for affection
A G
When I had you here the whole time
G
But you're my sunshine
G
And I never meant to make you cry
Em
But it tears me apart
G
The way I played with your heart
Bm
So before it gets dark
Asus4
Can we go back to the start?
Em
'Cause I hate we're apart
G Bm A
I miss the way that we are
[Chorus]
A D
This is what I want
D Bm
You're the one I dream of every day
Bm A
Can you see it in my eyes?
A G
Without you it feels like I'm dying
G
I'm a crybaby
D
You I know cry, baby
D
I'm just a crybaby
Bm
Crybaby, crybaby
A
Turn back the time, baby
[Verse 2]
D
And I wake up late
D Bm
'Cause I was just with you in my head
Bm
I'd rather sleep to dream
Bm
And not get out of this bed
A
Now I'm begging for your attention
A G
When I had it here the whole time
G
'Cause you're my sunshine
[Chorus]

This is what I want

You're the one I dream of every day

Can you see it in my eyes?

Without you it feels like I'm dying

Now I'm talking to myself

Looking for love in the wrong places

With thoughts of you up in my mind

In every teardrop that I cry

I'm a crybaby

You I know cry, baby

I'm just a crybaby
