After you've gone and left me crying
After you've gone there's no denying
You'll feel hurt you'll feel sad
You're gonna miss the best friend you ever had
There'll come a time (wah-oh-oh)
And you'll regret it
There'll come a time (wah-oh-oh)
You won't forget it

Some day when you're feeling lonely
Little heart's gonna pine like mine
You'll want me only
After you've gone (after you've gone)
After you've gone

After you've gone (wah-oh-oh)
And left me crying
After you've gone (wah-oh-oh)
There's no denying
You'll feel hurt (you'll feel hurt)
You'll feel sad (you'll feel)
You're gonna miss the best man you ever had
There'll come a time (there'll come a time)
When you'll regret it baby
There'll come a time (there'll come a time)
You won't forget it

Oh babe think what you're doing (wah-oh-oh)
The way you treated me
Will lead me to ruin
After you've gone (after you've gone)
After you've gone
