Sun Don't Shine – English Lyrics

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I need, I need

I need, I need you

I need, I need

I need, I need you

It's a Friday night

And I'm not in the mood

I'd rather chill with you

Tonight

(I need, I need)

Summer's here to stay

But I'm not doing fine

'Cause the sun don't shine my way

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

(I need, I need)

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

(I need, I need)

The sun don't shine

I could have it all

But nothing ever matters when you're gone now

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

(I need, I need)

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

I-I-I-I need, I need

I need, I need you

I need, I need

I need, I need

I need, I need

I need, I need you

I need, I need

I need, I need you

It's a Friday night

It's about half past two

I'd rather be with you

Yeah, tonight

(I need, I need)

Summer's here to stay

Something just ain't right

'Cause the sun won't shine

My way, my way

Your body says it all

It's to tell me to let go

My heart's about to blow

So I don't want to know

(I need, I need)

I've got it open now

But I don't have it together

Baby I'm no good

And without you I'm no better

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

(I need, I need)

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

(I need, I need)

The sun don't shine

I could have it all

But nothing, never matters

When you're gone, now

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

(I need, I need)

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

Where do I, where do I go

When you're not here no more, oh

Where do I, where do I go

When you're not here no more

When the house, no longer feels like a home

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

No, no

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

(I need, I need)

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

Baby

The sun don't shine

Ba-ba-ba-ba-bada, ba-ba-bada

Without you, without you

I-I-I-I need, I need

I need, I need you

I need, I need

I need, I need

I need, I need

I need, I need you

I need, I need

I need, I need you

I need, I need you
