The sheet music:
Accompaniment:
Lyrics
- Our dreaming, our scheming, was all in vain
One lover’s quarrel brought endless pain
We had a wonderful start
Who ever thought we would part?
Refrain:
All over nothing at all
Was our affection so small?
Must I go on living like this
Without the bliss of a sweet kiss?
I’m so sorry I made you cry
We could patch it up if we’d try
Why must we both say Good-Bye
All over nothing at all
- How could we, why should we, say it’s the end
Is this the one break nothing can mend?
When there is so much at stake
Why let our hearts ache and ache?
