Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- Tell me why you and I must be apart
After the happy days we’ve known
Right or wrong you belong close to my heart
I’m so unhappy here alone.
Chorus:
I miss you since you went away, dear
Miss you more than I can say, dear
Daytime, night time, nothing I do
Can make me forget
That I still love you
Wond’ring why we had to break up
Wond’ring if we’ll ever make up
Wond’ring if you ever miss me
As I miss you
- Think of me, lonely me, thinking of you
Trying to smile away my tears
Why can’t we, you and me, start life anew
Bring back once more those happy years
