After You
Romane Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now won't you listen honey, while I say,
How could you tell me that you're goin' away?
Don't say that we must part,
Don't break your baby's heart

You know I've loved you for these many years,
Loved you night and day,
Oh! honey baby, can't you see my tears?
Listen while I say

After you've gone and left me cryin'
After you've gone there's no denyin'
You'll feel blue, you'll feel sad
You'll miss the dearest pal you've ever had

There'll come a time, now don't forget it
There'll come a time when you'll regret it
Someday, when you grow lonely
Your heart will break like mine and you'll want me only
After you've gone, after you've gone away

After you've gone and left me cryin'
After you've gone there's no denyin'
You're gonna feel blue, and you're gonna feel sad
You're gonna feel bad
And you'll miss, and you'll miss,
And you'll miss the bestest pal you ever had

There'll come a time, now don't forget it
There'll come a time when you'll regret it
But baby, think what you're doin'
I'm gonna haunt you so, I'm gonna taunt you so




It's gonna drive you to ruin
After you've gone, after you've gone away.

imagine your mom takes you to see your fave band and then she starts dating the lead singer

@redsoxfox

Lol

@smd8226

Does she even have a daughter in the film? How they meet has obviously been changed. I’m fretting that they’ve made some big changes.

@cynthiamguzman

Looks like they might’ve changed that THANK GOD

The author Robinne Lee said it's not. She wrote the book and closer to that timeline Harry started dating an older woman
