"Someone Else May Be There While I'm Gone"

[1st verse:]
I left my darling
The other day
We started quarr'ling
I went away
But now I wish that I was back
I love my baby
Indeed I do
And who knows maybe
She loves me too
But that's just maybe
And that won't do

[Refrain:]
All that worries me
Is someone else may be there while I'm gone

In my dreams I see
A couple spooning on the lawn

That very thought
Just keeps me worried
I lay awake till the break of dawn

I must hurry back
'Cause someone else may be there while I'm gone

[2nd verse:]
I'm wild about her
That's why I'm blue
I hate to doubt her
The way I do
I may be wrong, I may be right
Altho' I worry
An awful lot
If I should hurry
Back to the spot
She may be waiting
She may be not
