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 gonna stay.
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone,
and this house just ain't no home,
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 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 he's gone.
Only darkness everyday. Ain't no sunshine when he's gone,
and this house just ain't no home,
anytime he goes away.

Anytime he goes away, anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
