Darling, when I left you.
You know I hated to go,
Darling, when I left you,
You know I hated to go;
You know I loved you,
And I hated to tell you so.

Sometime I wonder, will you ever think of me?
Sometime I wonder, will you ever think of me?
You know that I loved you,
Please be careful what you do.

Mmmm, how can I leave you here?
Mmmm, how can I leave you here?
You know that I loved you,
Please be careful what you do.
