The Ralph Sharon Trio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No matter how
You treat me now
I'll be around from now on.
Your latest love
Can never last,
And when its past,
Good-bye again,
And if you find a love like mine
Just now and then,
Oh drop a line to say you `re feeling fine
And when things go wrong
Perhaps you'll see
You're meant for me
So I'll be around when he's gone.
Good-bye again,
And if you find a love like mine
Just now and then,
Oh drop a line to say your feeling fine
And when things go wrong
Perhaps you'll see
You're meant for me
So I'll be around when he's gone.
