ain't no sunshine when she's gone
(my sunshine is gone with the wind)
it's not warm when she's away
(and my body feels cold deep within)
ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and she's always gone too long anytime she goes away.
(so cold, so cold)
Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone away
ain't no sunshine when she's gone
this house just ain't a home anytime she goes away...
& I know I know I know I know & I know I know I know I know
yeah, gotta leave my sweet thing alone
but ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Ever since you left my days seem less amazing
Had your body in my vision now I'm stargazing
Wondering how could you ever love another when
I was smothering ya body deep under the cover
in pale moon night lights, no trouble, no fuss
just up in the water with puddles of high fiscus
But then you flew like a discus
you didn't even discuss the situation
now you got me feeling furious
Only you can dry the tears from my eyes
bring back the rainbow when I look to the skies
I analyzed my state of depression
An' realize I can only fly with yo eagle in my sky
in this darkness without you, I can't see without you
Why even try? Why?
I can't lie, I die with no question
you was my blessin'
[hook]
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
In the darkness everyday (so alone baby, I miss you)
ain't no sunshine when she's gone
and she's always gone too long anytime she goes away.
The past, the past. The past
Flashbacks of lickin' you, you kissin' me
holdin you, just me & you
24-7 on the phone when I couldn't touch you
I miss you, reminiscing bringin tears to my eyes
When I realized you with another guy
Closing my eyes I couldn't see me being with any other
Dear, You my heaven; became hell when this love bounced
Yo, I dwell on the past reminiscing bout this wickedness coincedince
Girl we used to swim on the waters of the cruise in
Caribbean illusion
Until you started using abusing
I had no clues in the game that I was losing
strike one; now you think that he could do you better
spike one; we used to drink Marius? insted of Amoretta
??? rum
stroking this spikey headed vagabond
sitting on my bed sticking out ya tongue
while you listened to my poetry in ya eardrum
the memorandum was meant for time spent under the sun
but you never followed the dream
you just take it and run
hook to end
