Lyrics
Chorus:
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Cuz when its on, you know you’ll all be gone
Every time cuz we don't play
Verse 1:
I’d love to, see what you do, if we both knew,
How these tears would turn around in the few years//
Fears, running through my mind,
Your name, the only kind, for me not to forget and put behind//
If only we, could rewind, and put back in time//
And fix up, but yet aint seen the sign, just waiting, to say the line//
You, in every rhyme, listeners possibly bored,
But re-assured with pain as the bullet hits my brain//
Sex ain’t the only thing, we both took swings,
Lets just see what this new year brings, complications, is the shit that sings//
The love song, that we both know,
On our relationship the growth went slow, a long time, but it had never showed//
Days were dark when we stayed apart,
Deep sorrow blue attacks like a shark hunting me from the start//
But to the end is where we’ll meet,
With so many messages from my head to send you, I wait to greet//
Chorus:
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Cuz when its on, you know you’ll all be gone
Every time cuz we don't play
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Cuz when its on, you know you’ll all be gone
Every time cuz we don't play
Verse 2:
Kids running around, faces turn to a frown,
No clowns, no entertainment around town//
Helicopters land, shit that we cannot stand,
Need a hand as recruits just give out food in cans//
Everyone runs over to the food, no matter how rude,
Those cans need to be used, a fact we’ve disabused//
Im bemused, rich people are amused,
be a part of our race? Refused//
They have no electricity for homes or there patients,
And I admit Complicity for sending no donations//
But im going a new way, giving money weekly,
I’ll give it a few days, help will be more supplied quickly//
Diseases spreading, baby’s cry for there feeding,
These people are needing help as they suffer from internal bleeding//
These issues given a blank eye, no-one else hears them cry,
Desperate measures lay high, as day by day more people die//
Chorus:
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Cuz when its on, you know you’ll all be gone
Every time cuz we don't play
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Cuz when its on, you know you’ll all be gone
Every time cuz we don't play
Verse 3:
I aint living no lies, I say what I say,
And if you don’t like it, no time to play//
I leave you astray, too many of you,
You form a display, and I begin to screw//
I’ll leave it tonight, but I will turn too,
See you alone in sight, and I will turn untrue//
Im one of the very few, but I aint special,
If you want a fight with me, better book a facial//
I aint a violent guy, only when I need to,
I am a quiet guy, When I ain’t spoke to//
I like the peace, the war is a drama,
As it comes to an end, the world starts to get calmer//
Protestants and Catholics, and not forgetting palestines,
Peace around this world, no upsetting any time//
Only if everything, can be in the palm of my hand,
Just a few adjustments, All men would stand//
Chorus:
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Cuz when its on, you know you’ll all be gone
Every time cuz we don't play
Ain't no sunshine when it's on
Cuz when its on, you know you’ll all be gone
Every time cuz we don't play
