Maris - After You've Gone

Now, won't you listen honey while I say
How could you tell me that you're going away?
Don't say that we must part
Don't break your baby's heart
You know I've loved you for these many years
Loved you night and day
Oh, honey, baby
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 bestest pal you've ever had

There'll come a time
Don't forget it
There'll come a time
You'll regret it
Someday, when you grow lonely
Your heart will break like mine
And you want me only

After you've gone
After you've gone away
Yeah

Don't you remember how you used to say
You'd always love me in the same old way
But now it's very strange
That you should ever change
Perhaps some other sweeties won your heart
Stolen you away
But let me warn you
Though we're miles apart
You'll regret, someday

After I'm gone
After we break up
After I'm gone

You're gonna wake up
You will find
You were blind
To let somebody come and
Change your mind

After the years we've been together
The 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've gone
After I've gone away

Oh babe
Look what you're doing
You know my love for you could drive me to ruin

After I've gone
After I've gone away
After I'm gone
After I've gone
(Ooh)
