Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
She's always gone too long
Any time she goes away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
In this house just ain't my home
Any time she goes away
I know
Yeah, I know
I know
I will leave your things alone
There ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
In this house just ain't my home
Any time she goes away
Any time she goes away
I wonder this time where she's gone
I wonder if she's gone to stay
I leave your things alone
But there ain't no sunshine when she's gone
I leave your things alone
But there ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Any time she goes away
Any time she goes away
Any time she goes away
