Ain't no sunshine when she's gone 

It's not warm when she's away 

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone 

And she always gone too long anytime she goes away 


Wonder this time where she's gone 

Wonder if she's gone to stay 

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone 

And this house just ain't no home 

Anytime she goes away 


And I know, I know, I know, I know 

I know, I know, I know, I know 

I know, I know, I know, I know 

I know, I know, I know, I know 

I know, I know, I know, I know 

I know, I know, I know, I know 

I know, I know 


Hey I'll leave the young thing alone 

But ain't no sunshine when she's gone 

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone 

Only darkness everyday 


Ain't no sunshine when she's gone 

And this house just ain't no home 

Anytime she goes away 

Anytime she goes away 

Anytime she goes away 

Anytime she goes away
