Lyrics

  1. You’re sighin’ you’re cryin’ ’cause I did wrong
    Don’t grieve me, believe me, my love is strong
    Forget dear, why fret dear, ’twas all in fun
    I now see the harm it has done (but honey)

Chorus
Don’t say goodbye, don’t make me cry
I can’t believe we could be parted
If you leave, we’d both grieve, and soon be broken hearted
Whisper once more, just as before
Those wondrous tales of love you told me
Let love enfold me in your arms hold me
Then I won’t care how much you scold me
But honey don’t say goodbye

  1. You tell me that I hurt your feelings so
    And I made you jealous but don’t you know
    That I was just fooling, it was in fun
    I now see the harm it has done (but honey)
