Because it is not so. See "General College Chemistry" 6th edition, page 96 and 97:
Absorption spectrum: When continuous electromagintic radiation, for example, white light, passes thorugh as substance, certain wavelengths of radiation may be absorbed. The wavelength are characteristic of the substance that absorbs the radiation, and the pattern of these dark lines is referred ot as the absorption spectrum. When cool a substance absorbs radiation at the same wavelengths that it emits when excited.
