Ain't no sunshine when he's gone It's not warm when he's away. Ain't no sunshine when he's gone And he's always gone too long Anytime he goes away. Wonder this time where he's gone Wonder if he's gone to stay Ain't no sunshine when he's gone And this house just ain't no home Anytime he goes away. Uuuuuhhh, mmmmmm Ain't no sunshine, ain't no sunshine. 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, Hey, I oughtta leave young thing alone But ain't no sunshine when she's gone Ain't no sunshine when she's gone Only darkness every day. 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.
