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
Any time 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
Any time she goes away

And I know, I know, I know
OOh I ought a 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 is just not a home
Any time she goes away
Any time she goes away
Any time she goes away
