You just smiled as we said our last goodbye
But behind that smile a teardrop in your eye
Told me you were lonely too
All your skies were not so blue
Though the city lights it's true were fascinating you
I just whispered see you by and by
Then a great big tear came tumbling from your eye
And I knew right there and then
That when we'd meet again
I'd make you mine
No one else's dear but mine
Memories are calling, nightshades are falling
Poor little lonesome me
For my heart is in an isle across the sea
I tried to bear it with no one to share it
Now it's just plain as can be
And within my heart I cried
That our so long was not goodbye
You just smiled as we said our last goodbye
But behind that smile a teardrop in your eye
Told me you were lonely too
All your skies were not so blue
Though the city light it's true were fascinating you
I just whispered see you by and by
Then a great big tear came tumbling from your eye
And I knew right there and then
That when we'd meet again
I'd make you mine
No one else's dear but mine
But behind that smile a teardrop in your eye
Told me you were lonely too
All your skies were not so blue
Though the city lights it's true were fascinating you
I just whispered see you by and by
Then a great big tear came tumbling from your eye
And I knew right there and then
That when we'd meet again
I'd make you mine
No one else's dear but mine
Memories are calling, nightshades are falling
Poor little lonesome me
For my heart is in an isle across the sea
I tried to bear it with no one to share it
Now it's just plain as can be
And within my heart I cried
That our so long was not goodbye
You just smiled as we said our last goodbye
But behind that smile a teardrop in your eye
Told me you were lonely too
All your skies were not so blue
Though the city light it's true were fascinating you
I just whispered see you by and by
Then a great big tear came tumbling from your eye
And I knew right there and then
That when we'd meet again
