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's 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 ought to leave the young thing alone
But 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
Anytime she goes away
