[Verse 1]
Woke up this morning, I saw a empty bed
Where you were supposed to be woy I saw a note instead
When I open it up now lord this is what it read
Bye bye, baby, bye bye, you know I love you and that's no lie
But I found myself another bonafide
Everything I want he can buy
Never wanna cry never wanna shed no tears
But when I look upon them wasted years
I got to say why baby why baby why
[Chorus]
You took my sunshine away, you took my sunshine away
And darkness cover my head and it rain and it rain
You took my sunshine away
Why you took my sunshine away away
[Verse 2]
Took down your pictures off the wall I took them down
Don't wanna see your face at all at all
But the scent of your perfume lord still lingers in the room
Overwhelming and taking control
Is there no escaping lord the memory of you oh no
Search search high and low, search everywhere that I know you go
Calling your friends the ones I know
Telling them to tell you that I won't let go
Never wanna cry never wanna shed a tear
But when I look upon them wasted years
I have to say why baby why baby why
[Chorus]
You took my sunshine away, you took my sunshine away
And darkness cover my head and it rain and it rain
You took my sunshine away
Why you took my sunshine away away
[Verse 3]
Now tears gonna be on my pillow
I a weep like a weeping willow
My heart you dash it through the window
Now I am lonely lonely lonely now
This is the thanks I get for loving blindly
I was so lost no one could find me find me
I never saw it coming coming
I treat you so good and now you start running running
[Outro]
You took my sunshine away, you took my sunshine away
And darkness cover my head and it rain and it rain
You took my sunshine away
Why you took my sunshine away away
