At last you have made up your mind to leave me
And yet you say you'd really rather stay
For quite a while I've known that this would happen
But I never dreamed that it would be today

You tell me that you've had not found another
But as you do you look the other way
For you know how it hurts me don't you darling
So you see there's nothing more for me to say

Now what's the use for me to keep on crying
I'd gladly do it if I thought it takes
But when that love light in your eyes stopped shining
I knew that there was nothing more to say

I'll treasure all the years we spent together
And every kiss still burns within my heart
And when you're old and gray just please remember
In my life you still play the leading part

So leave me now before I cry please do dear
May you never suffer as I have today
I think you know just what I mean my darling
So really there is nothing more to say
