I gotta go on my way by myself
Because this is the end of romance
I gotta go my way all by myself
Love it's only it's only a dance
I'm gonna try to apply myself
And teach my poor heart how to sing
I gotta go I want to go my way all by myself
Just like just like a bird on a wing
I'm gonna face the unknown
I'm gonna feel I'm gonna feel the way on my own
Cause nobody knows better than I myself
You see I'm by myself all alone

I gotta go I gotta go on my way by myself
This is the end, the end, the end end of romance
I gotta go I gotta go my way all by myself
Love is only a dance
Cause I gotta go I gotta see, I gotta
Try my own thing by myself
And teach my poor heart how to sing
I gotta go I gotta try my own thing all by myself
Just like a bird I'm out on a wing
I'm gonna face the unknown
I'm wanna feel I gotta feel I wanna feel
A world of my own
Nobody nobody knows better than I myself
You see I'm by myself all alone

My baby treats me sweet and gentle
The way that he should
I got it bad and that ain't good

My poor heart it's sentimental
You know it ain't made out of wood
I got it bad and that ain't good

When the weekend is over
And Monday rolls round
I am the way that I started out
You know I'm crying, crying my heart out

He don't love me like I love him
Ah nobody could
I got it bad, bad,

I got it bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
I got it bad, ah bad
And I got it bad and it ain't good

Am I blue, ah am I blue
Ain't these tears in these eyes telling you
Am I blue
You'll be too
I said if this plans with your man
Done fell through

Oh there was a time
When I was, when I was he's only one
But look at me and see now
I'm oh I'm the sad, I'm the sad and lonely one
I'm a fool and I'm the only one
Was I gay, was I gay until today
Oh God he's gone, he's gone and we're through
Am I blue

There was a time there was a time
I said there was a time
That I was he's only one
But right now, right now
I'm, I'm the sad of the sad and lonely one
I'm the left behind only one

Am I blue, ah am I blue
Now he's gone and we're through
Am I, am I blue
Am I blue

I could cry some chin-chin tears
Where have I been all these years
A little while come on tell me now
How long has this been going on
What a kick and how I buzz
My son you click like nobody does
Listen sweet I repeat
How long has this been going on

CHORUS:
I feel like I could melt right into heaven
I've heard
And now I know how Columbus felt
Finding another world
Kiss me once and then again once more
God what a dunce I was before
What a break for heaven sake
How long has this been going on

Chorus



. . .



Someday he'll come along
The man I love
And he'll be big so big and strong
The man, the man that I love
And when he comes my way
I'll do my best to make him stay

He's gonna look at me and smile
I'll understand
And in a little while
He's gonna grab, he's gonna grab my hand
And though I know it seems obscure
I know it won't say
We won't say a word

CHORUS:
Maybe I shall meet him Sunday
Maybe Monday maybe not
Still I'm gonna meet him one day
Cause maybe Tuesday will be
My good news day
He'll build a little home meant just for 2
From which I'll never, never run with you
And so all else above
I'm waiting for the man I love

He's gonna look at me and smile
I'll understand
And in a little while
He's gonna grab, he's gonna grab my hand
And though I know it seems obscure
I know it won't say
We won't say a word

Chorus

Climb upon my knee Sonny boy
You are only 3 Sonny boy
You have no way of knowing
I have no way of showing
What you mean to me Sonny boy
When they are gray skies honey
I don't mind those gray skies
I'll still have you Sonny boy
Don't you know that
My friends may forsake me
Let them go on and forsake me
You're gonna pull me straight through
Sonny boy
You're sent from heaven
And I know your worst
You've made a heaven for me
Right here on earth

I'm coming yes I'm coming
I'm sorry that I made you wait
Yes I'm coming, good God I'm coming
I hope and pray it's not too late
Can't you hear my mammy
My little mam, my little mammy
I walk a million miles for one of your smiles
My mam, my my mam my little mammy

Weep no more, weep no more my lady
Sing that song again for me
Sing a song that low just as though
You had me you had me right there on your knee
A million baby kisses I'm gonna deliver
As many that you sing that's what I deliver

Rock-a-bye your rock-a-bye baby
With a Dixie melody

Friends may forsake me
Let them forsake me
I'll still have you Sonny boy



. . .



More than you know, more than you know
Man of my heart, I love you so
Lately I find you on my mind
More than you know
Whether you're right, whether you're wrong
Man of my heart I'm gonna string along
I need you so, more than you'll ever know

CHORUS:
Loving you the way that I do
There's nothing I can do about it
Loving may be all you can give
But honey I can't live without it

Oh how I cry, oh how I die
If you got tired and said goodbye
More than I chose
More than you'll ever know

Chorus

Oh how I cry, oh how I die
If you got tired and said goodbye
More than I chose
More than you'll ever know

Chorus



. . .



Why was I born tell me why I am living
What do I give or what am I'm giving
What do I want anything I can not hope for
What can I hope for I wish I knew

CHORUS:
Why do I try to draw you near me
Honey tell me why do I cry
Cause you're never gonna hear me
I'm a poor fool
But what can I do, I do
Why was I born to love you

Chorus



. . .



The night is bitter
The stars have lost their glitter
The wind blows colder
And suddenly you're older
And all because of the man that got away

No more is he the cause
The writings on the wall
Oh but dreams, yeah dreams
Have all gone astray

The man that won you
Has gone off and undone you
The great beginning
Has seen it's final ending
Don't know what happened
It's all a crazy game

No more, no more of that ole time thrill
Honey you been through the mill
never will a new love will be the same

Good riddance ah goodbye
Every, every prickle is you own to
But fools will be fools
And where he goes to
The road gets rougher
It's lonelier and it's tougher
We hope you run up
Tomorrow, tomorrow may come up

There's just no letter
The live long night and day
Ever since this world begun
There ain't nothing sadder
Than a one man woman
Crying for the man that got away
