Dinah Washington - After You’ve Gone Lyrics

Now listen, honey, while I say
How can you fix your mind to tell me you're going away?

Don't say that we must part
Don't break my aching heart
You know you love me
True for many years
Loved you night and day
Can't you see my tears
How can you leave me, mmm
Listen while I say

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 will want me only,
After you've gone, lord

After you've gone away
Well, after you've gone
After we breakup
After I'm gone
You'll want to makeup
You'll feel blue

You'll feel sad
You'll miss the bestest gal you've ever had
There'll come a time
Now don't forget it
Oh lord, there'll come a time when you'll regret it
Someday
When you grow lonely
Your heart will break like mine and you will want me only
After you've gone, after you've gone away
My darling, after you've gone
After you've gone away
