   Lyrics
   Ain't no sunshine when she's gone It's not warm when she's away Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And she's always gone too long Anytime she's goes away Wonder this time where she's gone Wonder if she's gone to stay Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And this house just ain't no home Anytime she goes away And I know, I know, I know, I know I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I know, I know Hey, I ought to leave young thing alone But ain't no sunshine when she's gone, whoa, whoa 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 Anytime she goes away

   Grandma's hands Clapped in church on Sunday morning Grandma's hands Played a tambourine so well Grandma's hands Used to issue out a warning She'd say, Billy don't you run so fast Might fall on a piece of glass Might be snakes there in that grass Grandma's hands Grandma's hands Soothed a local unwed mother Grandma's hands Used to ache sometimes and swell Grandma's hands Used to lift her face and tell her She'd say, Baby, grandma understands That you really love that man Put yourself in Jesus' hands Grandma's hands Grandma's hands Used to hand me piece of candy Grandma's hands Picked me up each time I fell Grandma's hands Boy, they really came in handy She'd say, Matty don' you whip that boy What you want to spank him for? He didn' drop no apple core But I don't have grandma anymore If I get to heaven I'll look for Grandma's hands Hmm-mmh

   Lyrics
   I see the crystal raindrops fall And the beauty of it all Is when the sun comes shining through To make those rainbows in my mind When I think of you sometime And I want to spend some time with you Just the two of us We can make it if we try Just the two of us (Just the two of us) Just the two of us Building castles in the sky Just the two of us You and I We look for love, no time for tears Wasted water's all that is And it don't make no flowers grow Good things might come to those who wait Not for those who wait too late We gotta go for all we know Just the two of us We can make it if we try Just the two of us (Just the two of us) Just the two of us Building them castles in the sky Just the two of us You and I Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us I hear the crystal raindrops fall On the window down the hall And it becomes the morning dew And, darling, when the morning comes And I see the morning sun I want to be the one with you Just the two of us We can make it if we try Just the two of us (Just the two of us) Just the two of us Building big castles way on high Just the two of us You and I Just the two of us (yes, the two of us) We can make it just the two of us (Let's get it together, baby) Just the two of us (yes, the two of us) We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us We can make it just the two of us Just the two of us

   Lyrics
   Maybe the lateness of the hour Makes me seem bluer than I am But in my heart there is a shower I hope she'll be happier with him Maybe the darkness of the hour Makes me seem lonelier than I am But over the darkness I have no power Hope she'll be happier with him I can't believe that she don't want to see me We lived and loved with each other so long I never thought that she really would leave me But she's gone Maybe the lateness of the hour Makes me seem bluer than I am But in my heart there is a shower Hope she'll be happier with him
