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 he's always gone too long

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 oughta leave this all alone, hey

ain't no sunshine when he's gone



hey....lalalalala...

oh and i remember

hey, and and and i remember

that tune, so, yea yea yea yea



i oughta leave it all alone

hey, i know, i oughta leave this alone



wonder this time where he's gone

wonder if he's gone to stay

ain't no sunshine when he's gone

and he's always gone too long

anytime he....yea

he goes away...
