Gene and Eunice Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is my story, i have no song
Just alone and broken hearted
Just because i fell in love
In love with you

I pray that you'll come back to me
Just to hear you say you love me
And we'll never, ever part
Part from you

Dooba, da do , da do, da do
Dooba, dooba, dooba,
Dooba, da do, da do, da do
Dooba, dooba, dooba
Dooba, da do, da do, da do
Dooba, dooba ,dooba do
Da do, da do, da do

You pray that i'll come back to you
Yes, darling, i love you
And we'll never, ever part
No we'll never, ever part




No we'll never , ever part
No we'll never, ever part

This is the "real McCoy". Came out summer 1955, I was a sophomore in high school. Love the base saxophone on the background and "on the bridge". Love that song--it's my high school life passing before my eyes.
