I hurried home from work today
Just to find him packing
It seems my prayer's been answered here
Though our affair is lacking
'Cause again
My tears attempt to stay
And make for us a brighter
Much brighter day
What'll I do when you're gone, baby?
What'll I do when you're gone?
What'll I do when you're gone, baby?
You're gone away
A summer walk with you alone
So close to God
It's true
That special kiss and a little smile
Will last a whole life through
So let's hold on to our brighter day
And don't let it ever, ever, ever slip away
What'll I do when you're gone, baby?
What'll I do when you're gone?
What'll I do when you're gone, baby?
You're gone away
So let's hold on to our brighter day
And don't let it ever, ever, ever slip away
What'll I do when you're gone, baby?
What'll I do when you're gone?
What'll I do when you're gone, baby?
You're gone away
What'll I do
What'll I do
What'll I do
What'll I do
You're gone away
What'll I do when you're gone, baby?
What'll I do when you're gone?
What'll I do when you're gone, baby?
You're gone away.
