Someone Else May Be There While I'm Gone - Al Jolson, Ирвинг Берлин

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 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

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
