[Verse 1]
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 ever had

[Verse 2]
There'll come a time, now don't forget it
There come a time when you'll you 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

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
After I'm gone, after we break up
After I'm gone, you're gonna wake up
You will find that you were blind
To let somebody come and change your mind

[Verse 4]
After the years we've been together
Through joys and tears, all kinds of weather
Someday, blue and downhearted
You'll long to be with me right back were you started
After I'm gone, after I'm gone away
