Now listen honey while I say

How can you tell me that you're going away

Don't say that we must part

Don't break my achin' heart

You know I love you true for many years

Love you night and day

How can you leave me

Can't you see my tears

So listen while I say

After you've gone

And left me cryin'

After you've gone

There's no denyin'

You'll feel blue

You'll feel sad

You'll miss the dearest pal

You ever had

There'll come a time

Now don't forget it

There'll come a time

When you'll regret it

Someday

When you grow lonely

Your heat will break like mine

And you'll want me only

After you've gone

After you've gone away

After you've gone

Left me cryin'

After you've gone

There's no denyin'

You'll feel blue

You'll feel sad

You'll miss the best pal

You ever had

There'll come a time

Now don't forget it

There'll come a time

When you'll regret it

Someday

When you grow lonely

Your heat will break like mine

And you'll want me only

After you've gone

After you've gone away
