The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine (Anymore) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Loneliness is a cloak you wear
A deep shade of blue is always there

[Chorus]
The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
The tears are always cloudin' your eyes
When you're without love
Baby

[Verse 2]
Emptiness is a place you're in
With nothin' to lose but no more to win

[Chorus]
The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
The tears are always cloudin' your eyes
When you're without love

[Bridge]
Lonely without you, baby
Girl, I need you, I can't go on

[Chorus]
The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
(The sun ain't gonna shine anymore)
The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky
(The moon ain't gonna rise in the sky)
The tears are always cloudin' your eyes
(The tears are always cloudin' my eyes)
The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
When you're without love
Baby
[Outro]
(The sun ain't gonna shine anymore)
(The sun ain't gonna shine anymore)
Not anymore (The sun ain't gonna shine anymore)
Baby (The sun ain't gonna shine anymore)
Baby (The sun ain't gonna shine anymore)
Woo, ooh, ooh, ooh (The sun ain't gonna shine anymore)
No, no, baby (The sun ain't gonna shine anymore)
Baby (The sun ain't gonna shine anymore)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
