About Ain't No Sunshine

Bill Withers told Songfacts that an inspiration for this song was the 1962 movie Days of Wine and Roses . "I was watching a movie called Days Of Wine And Roses (1962) with Lee Remick and Jack Lemmon. They were both alcoholics who were alternately weak and strong. It's like going back for seconds on rat poison. Sometimes you miss things that weren't particularly good for you. It's just something that crossed my mind from watching that movie, and probably something else that happened in my life that I'm not aware of." .

Ain't No Sunshine Lyrics

[00:00.35] Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
[00:06.64] It's not warm when she's away
[00:13.00] Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
[00:16.49] And she's always gone too long
[00:19.32] Anytime she's goes away
[00:25.68] Wonder this time where she's gone
[00:31.95] Wonder if she's gone to stay
[00:38.22] Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
[00:41.51] And this house just ain't no home
[00:44.42] Anytime she goes away
[00:50.39] And I know, I know, I know, I know
[00:52.97] I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
[00:55.65] I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
[00:58.34] I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
[01:01.01] I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
[01:03.75] I know, I know
[01:05.31] Hey I oughta leave young thing alone
[01:08.28] But ain't no sunshine when she's gone, woh woh
[01:14.37] Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
[01:20.58] Only darkness every day
[01:26.44] Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
[01:29.78] And this house just ain't no home
[01:32.62] Anytime she goes away
[01:38.55] Anytime she goes away
[01:44.56] Anytime she goes away
[01:50.51] Anytime she goes away
[01:52.97]
