You’ll wake up this morning
to find I’ll be gone and
you will read the note I left you.
You will start to cry and
you will wonder why and
you will hope I don’t forget you.
So, if you’re hurt I’m sorry,
but, try not to worry.
It’s the way it had to be,
can’t you see?
So, please don’t be lonely.
It’s for a short time only.
You could never have been
happy with me.
Things like this just can’t last.
Don’t you see they must pass?
It was only love I gave you.
I could never live for
you or ever give more.
You need more than love to save you.
So, if you’re hurt I’m sorry,
but, try not to worry.
It’s the way it had to be,
can’t you see?
So, please don’t be lonely.
It’s for a short time only.
You could never have been
happy with me.
I must follow rainbows,
go the way the wind blows.
I shall never get to know you.
If you wonder if I’m
this way all of the time,
get somebody else to show you.
So, if you’re hurt I’m sorry,
but, try not to worry.
It’s the way it had to be,
can’t you see?
So, please don’t be lonely.
It’s for a short time only.
You could never have been
happy with me.
