Ain't no sunshine when she's gone Only darkness everyday Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And she's always gone too long Anytime she goes away I wonder this time where she's gone I wonder if she's gone to stay Cause ain't no sunshine when she's gone And this house just ain't no home, anytime she goes away I know, I know, I know [Repeats] I know, I know Hey I won't leave that young thing alone Ain't no sunshine when she's gone Only darkness every day Cause ain't no sunshine when she's gone And she's always gone too long Anytime she goes away I know, I know, I know [Repeats] I know, I know Hey I won't leave that young thing alone Ain't no sunshine when she's gone Only darkness every day Cause ain't no sunshine when she's gone This house just ain't no home, Anytime she goes away Anytime she goes away Anytime she goes away
