Lyrics[]
[Pre-Chorus]
After you've gone and left me crying
After you’ve gone, there's no denying
You'll feel blue, you’ll feel sad
You'll miss the dearest pal you ever had
[Chorus]
There'll come a time, now don't forget it
There'll come a time when you'll regret it
Some day when you'll grow lonely
Your heart will break like mine and you'll want me only
After you’ve gone, after you’ve gonе away
[Verse]
Now won't you listen deary, while I say
How could you tеll me that you’re goin' away?
Don't say that we must part
Don't break my aching heart
[Bridge]
You know I’ve loved you truly, many years
Loved you night and day
Oh, can you leave me?
Can't you see my tears?
Listen while I say
[Pre-Chorus]
After you've gone and left me cryin'
After you've gone, there's no denyin'
You'll feel so battled, you'll feel so bad
You'll miss the bestest pal you ever had
[Chorus]
There'll come a time, and don't forget it
There'll come a time when you'll regret it
All day, think what you're doin'
You know my love for you will drive me to ruin
After you've gone, after you've gone away
Away, away
[Pre-Chorus]
After you've gone and left me crying
After you’ve gone, there's no denying
You'll feel blue, you’ll feel sad
You'll miss the dearest pal you ever had
[Chorus]
There'll come a time, now don't forget it
There'll come a time when you'll regret it
Some day when you'll grow lonely
Your heart will break like mine and you'll want me only
After you’ve gone, after you’ve gonе away
[Verse]
Now won't you listen deary, while I say
How could you tеll me that you’re goin' away?
Don't say that we must part
Don't break my aching heart
[Bridge]
You know I’ve loved you truly, many years
Loved you night and day
Oh, can you leave me?
Can't you see my tears?
Listen while I say
[Pre-Chorus]
After you've gone and left me cryin'
After you've gone, there's no denyin'
You'll feel so battled, you'll feel so bad
You'll miss the bestest pal you ever had
[Chorus]
There'll come a time, and don't forget it
There'll come a time when you'll regret it
All day, think what you're doin'
You know my love for you will drive me to ruin
After you've gone, after you've gone away
Away, away
