After You've Gone

(album: Alone Together - 1960)

Don't you remember how you used to say
You always love me in the same old way
And now it's very strange
That you should ever change

Sometimes I think someone has won your heart
Tempted you away
But let me warn though we're miles apart
You'll regret someday

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'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 I'm gone, and 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 that we've been together
Their joy and tears, all kinds of weather
Someday blue and downhearted
You'll long to be with me right back where you started
After I'm gone, after I'm gone away
