You Are the Sunshine of My Life by Stevie Wonder is featured in Wonder-ful, the twenty-first episode of Season Four. It is sung by Kurt with Kitty, Marley, and Tina as backup singers and dancers. 

After Burt, Carole, and Kurt find out that Burt is in remission and his tumor has disappeared, Kurt is more than delighted and brings him to the Choir Room. He decided to dedicate this song to Burt because he used to sing the song to Kurt when he was younger, putting a smile on his face. Marley, Kitty, and Tina get up and assist Kurt with the song while doing a little backup dancing.

Blaine enjoys Kurt's solo as much as Burt does, and at the end of the song, Kurt grabs his father to dance with him. At the end of the song, the Glee Club applauds Kurt, and Burt happily thanks him. 

Lyrics[]

Kurt:
You are the sunshine of my life
That's why I'll always be around

Kurt with Kitty, Marley, and Tina harmonizing:
You are the apple of my eye
Forever you'll stay in my heart

Kurt:
I feel like this is the beginning
Though I've loved you for a million years
And if I thought our love was ending
I'd find myself drowning in my own tears
Whoa whoa

You are the sunshine of my life, yeah
That's why I'll always stay around, mhm, yeah

Kurt with Kitty, Marley, and Tina harmonizing:
You are the apple of my eye
Forever you'll stay in my heart

Kurt:
You must have known that I was lonely
Because you came to my rescue
And I know that this must be heaven
How could so much love be inside of you?
Whoa

Kurt (with Kitty, Marley, and Tina harmonizing):
You are the sunshine of my life, yeah
That's why I'll always stay around, mhm (Baby)
You are the apple of my eye
Forever you'll stay in my heart, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
In my heart, (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) yeah, mhm aaha
