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 anytime 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 anytime she 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 ought to leave the young thing alone,
But ain´t no sunshine when she´s gone, only darkness everyday.
Ain´t no sunshine when she´s gone,
And this house just ain´t no home anytime she goes away.

Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes away.
