[Verse 1]
Mesmerized girl
She's free and single and disengaged
Tall and tan and just the right age
Something about her really gets to me
With the whole world around, she's the only one I see
[Chorus]
She's my sunshine
Shining down into my world like springtime
I knew right away she was bound to be mine
Ooh yeah
[Post-Chorus]
For the first time in my lifetime
I heard bells chime, ah, ah, ah
[Verse 2]
And when she said hello to me (Hello, hello, hello, hello)
I knew right away it was meant to be
For us to share the joys that love can bring
Like budding flowers in the early spring
[Chorus]
She's my sunshine
Shining down into my world like springtime
From that little one, she said she'd be mine
Ooh yeah
[Post-Chorus]
At springtime, all mine
Oh yeah
[Bridge]
Never let me go
Because I love you so
All that you'll ever know
Oh now, baby, don't go
[Verse 3]
They say that love has no guarantee
But I knew it did the moment she touched me
Heaven seemed to be within her caress
Because I felt blessed with pure happiness
[Chorus]
She's my sunshine
Shining down into my world like springtime
This girl's the kind you want, a sunshine
'Cause destiny had chose the one and only girl for me
'Cause we uncovered a world never discovered
What everyone is searching for
Girl, you're mine and it's for sure
Now that I found you
I'm gonna surround ya 'cause you're mine and mine alone
Mesmerized girl

Shining down into my world like springtime
I knew right away she was bound to be mine
Ooh yeah

And when she said hello to me (Hello, hello, hello, hello)
