ain't no sunshine when she's gone
it's not warm when she's away
ain't no sunshine when she's gone
she's gone much too long
any time she goes away
ain't no sunshine when 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
i know
she's gone to stay
it's breakin' me up
anytime she goes away
gotta leave the young thing alone
there ain't no sunshine when she's gone
