LyricsVerse 1 I left my darling the other day, We started quarreling, 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.Chorus 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 hurt back, 'Cause someone else may be there while I'm gone.Verse 2 I'm wild about her; that is why I'm blue— I hate to doubt her the way I do; I may be wrong, I may be right. Although I worry an awful lot, If I should hurry back to the spot, She may be waiting, She may be not!Repeat Chorus ReferencesSomeone Else May Be There While I'm Gone WikipediaSimilar Topics Lucy Allais Joseph Matarazzo Antonio Catania | ||||||
