Lyrics

  1. Just like other sweethearts often do, dear
    We have quarreled and you made me cry
    Just like other sweethearts start anew, dear
    If they do it so can you and I

Chorus
Why don’t you tell me you’re sorry
So sorry that you broke my heart
Let’s not break up, let us make up
What would become of me should we part
I’m lonely without you
Just think of all that we’ve gone through
Let me hold you near
Tell me you’re sorry dear
Can’t you tell I’m sorry, too

  1. After ev’ry rain there comes the sunshine
    After ev’ry tear there comes a smile
    Love like ours only comes out one time
    We’ll be happy in a little while
