Now won't you listen dearie
while I say
How could you tell me that
you're goin' away
Don't say that we must part
Don't break my aching heart
You know I've loved you
truly many years
Loved you night and day
How can you leave me
Can't you see my tears
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've 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 heart will break like mine
And you'll want me only
After you've gone
After you've gone away
After the years
We've been together
Their joy and tears
All kinds of weather
Someday
Blue and down hearted
You'll long to be with me
right back where you started
After I'm gone
After I'm gone away
