After you′ve gone and left me crying, after you′ve gone - there′s no denying
You′ll feel blue - you′re gonna be sad
You′ve missed the dearest pal that (slickest partner) you ever had
There′ll come a time - don′t you forget it
(Yeah) There′ll come a time - when you′re gonna regret it
Some day when you get lonely
Your heart will break like mine - (and) you′ll want me only.
After you′ve gone (split) - after you′ve gone away (flown the coop)
After we paid - our dues together
You should have stayed - through all that nasty weather
Someday while you′re feeling badly
You′ll need the only one that loves you so madly
But I′ll be gone - yes I′ll be gone - to stay
Yeah after I′ve gone - after I′ve gone away
