No Sunshine Your Gone

Listen to poem:
The sun won't shine now, you've gone, away The birds departed and their songs won't play The flowers are appalled, petals droop fall The clouds move in, the winds begin to squall. Come back baby, you're needed right here, now Never leave us again, please make the vow. Ain't no sunshine when you're gone It's forever night here, anytime you go away The cold and darkness reign anytime you're away Why do the birds suddenly reappear Every time you're back here with us, my dear? Just like me, they long to be, close to you Close to you, close to you, Please stay, this time Stay for good.

Lovely words to go with the tune John. I remember when I was young the home never felt warm until my mother walked in through the door… Belle
