Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well, now, when I first met you , darling
You said you always would be mine
Yes, when I first met you , baby
You said you always would be mine
Well, you did my heart in two, baby
And keep me worried all the time

Well, now, some day, baby, baby, things are bound to change
Yes, some day somewhere, darling, baby
Things are bound to change
Yes, your tears is gonna fall, baby
Well, like midnight showers of rain

Well, now, goodbye, baby, I know we'll never meet again
Yes, goodbye, goodbye, baby, baby, we'll never meet again




Well, I want you to remember, darling
Yes, I once tried to be your man
