If your are intersted, here are the lyrics.....

Loneliness
Is a cloak you wear
A deep shade of blue
Is always there

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

Emptiness
Is a place you're in
With nothing to lose
But no more to win

(Repeat Chorus, except exclude 'baby')

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

(Repeat Chorus, but add an extra
'The sun ain't gonna shine anymore'
after 3rd line)

The sun ain't gonna shine anymore
(Repeat till fade)

The 80's version was by Reed Nielsen and Mark Pearson.  It's one of my all-time favourites of the 80's 8)

The version by Quantize was popular in the clubs and is probably the one you're looking for.
