Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone
It’s not warm when she’s away
Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone
And she’s always gone too long
Anytime she goes away
Wonder this time where she’s gone
Wonder if she’s gone to stay
Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone
And this house just ain’t no home
Anytime she 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
Hey, I ought to leave the yound thing alone
But ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone,
Only darkness everyday
Ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone
And this house just ain’t no home anytime
She goes away
(Repeat *)
Anytime she goes away (x4)
I know, I know, I know, I know
(8 times)
I swear, I am now looking for about two years for the best version of aint no sunshine...here is finally the best. undoubtly, I finally I can now say I can stop looking for a better version.
I'd like to share this. I don't often remember my dreams but some years back I dreamt I was in a dark room, in the middle was a light, a microphone stand, a stool, and Eva Cassidy singing. I don't profess to have the answers to where we go when we leave this spinning orb, but if there's a forever after, (and hopefully happy one), Eva is there.
"Rest in Peace" my husband...
Miss you my dear no more suffering enough was enough.
Thank you for the years together taking care of me.40 years was a long time..
I am sitting here with tears rolling down my face....this was my dads favorite female artist...he passed away yesterday after a battle with cancer....I miss him....Eva's voice will be heard at his funeral...just not sure which song yet...leaning towards songbird...
So jealous of anyone who ever was able to be in that blues jazz room listening to this amazing singer and her otherworldly voice...and even more envious of anyone who actually had the chance to know this beautiful soul personally...I miss her and I never even met her or had heard of her before her death...
Thanks to the producer who recorded this probably for free. We are indebted to you for capturing this timeless beauty of a voice, while the "music business" was busy hyping the likes of Britney Spears
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 always gone too long anytime he goes away
I wonder this time where he's gone
Wonder how long he's gonna stay
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime he goes away
Well I know I know I know...
When he's gone
Always gone too long anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Here after Bill Withers passing, may he rest in peace. I hope he got to hear this version of his song, it was always my favorite, one of my favorite songwriters by my favorite singer.
