I'll be in my room alone Every postmeridian And I'll be with my diary And that book by Mister Gideon Bye-bye, baby Remember you're my baby When they give you the eye And just to show that I care I will write and declare That I'm on the loose But I'll stay on the square I'll be lonely But even though I'm lonely There'll be no other guy Though I'll be gone for a while I know that I'll be smiling With my baby by and by ~~~♫♫♫~~~ I'll be gloomy But send that rainbow to me Then my shadows will fly Though I'll be gone for a while I know that I'll be smiling With my baby by and by With my baby by and by
