Hey Alexis
[Verse 1: Charlie Hayley]
I been thinking bout what would've happened if we got together
And then we would've had what half a year before u fled this weather
I know it wasn't your choice but still
Halfway across the world, the thought makes me ill
I'll prolly never see you again, in the dark I'm bumpin'
Power trip, thinkin that your final trip is f**in
Bad for me because my
Psyche's beaten and I
Wish I could've told you before you decided to say bye
We haven't even talked in weeks
Wish I could feel your fingers on my cheeks
Well it's probably a good thing I never told you how I felt
Cause you were movin regardless, I prolly would've went through hell
If i had you then I lost you, funny how that turns out, right
So I guess I'll thank the heavens
That me and you never turned out right
[Hook]
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
She's always gone too long anytime she goes away
Hey. This is for you. Not Alexis. You
[Verse 2: Charlie Hayley]
There was once this girl, I called her bad silence
For reasons you'll never figure out, so stop trying
And while we're at it, I could never figure her
For crying out loud, I could only finger her
Chill, I'm talking middle finger pointed at her back
I'm talking wounded ego, pride is never intact
I'm drowning when I see her, and as a matter of fact
The last time I seen her was six months in the past
Ask me, why I still haven't surfaced
Why I still feel like I'm drowning, and my life has no purpose
And my existence is worthless
And my brain thinks in cursive
And my mouth thinks in curses, I trace it all back to her
My heart couldn't be warmed if I was wearing fur
See it's not like them other girls, with them it's straight dismissal
But see bad silence, she hit me like a missile
She was always a mystery, throughout our brief history
I tried to get close to her, but she would talk listlessly
Acting uninterested, and it prolly wasn't acting
Something was clouding her face, and that sh** wasn't acne
Something was f**ed up, something was wrong see
This was half a year ago, yet that sh** still haunts me
And until, they close my eyelids
I'll remember, you bad silence
[Refrain]
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
