(Verse / Intro)
Should you see me on the street 
Just pass me by
and if you do
Please don’t look me in the eye 
My tears are falling 
Like a stormy autumn day
For my baby’s gone away 

(v1)
Yesterday seems so very long ago 
And yet I still feel traces of her morning glow 
Reminding me of my sorrow
Another sad tomorrow 
Since my baby’s gone away

(v2)
I’ll remember all the times that we once shared 
I’ll remember when I had one who cared 
Now all I’ve got is sorrows 
So many sad tomorrows 
Since my baby’s gone away 

(Bridge)
I know I was to blame 
I treated love like a game
I didn’t make her see 
Just how much she meant to me 

(v3)
Well if my baby ever gives me another chance 
I would give the world to save our romance 
Then there’d be no more sorrows 
And no more sad tomorrows 
If she’d just come back to stay 

(Coda)
Well my baby’s gone away 
Yes, my baby’s gone away
