Lyrics:
Ain't No Sunshine

Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone
It’s not warm when shes away,
Aint no sunshine when shes gone
Cos this girl is gone too long
Anytime she goes away

I wonder this time where she’s gone
I wonder if she’s gonna stay
Aint no sunshine when shes gone
This house just aint no home
Anytime she goes away

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,

Oh you better leave your thing alone
Ain't no sunshine when she’s gone
