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 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 he's gone Ain't no sunshine when he's gone Only darkness everyday Ain't no sunshine when he's gone And this house just ain't no home Anytime he goes away Anytime he goes away Anytime he goes away Anytime he goes away
