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
