He Didn't Even Say Good-Bye - 1934

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 29 Aug 2001

It happened in a town I know,
Not so very long ago.
A boy left a girl brokenhearted,
Now her life is filled with woe.

He didn't even say goodbye,
she never knew the reason why,
After telling her he lov'd her
he walk'd right out and left her,
he didn't even say goodbye.
At least he could have left a note,
who knows, he may be on a boat,
And to think he'd leave her stranded,
she'll never understand it,
at least he could have left a note.
Night after night
she would try on her new wedding gown.
Then came the night
when her hero deserted the town,
and he didn't even say goodbye.
We'll never know the reason why.
Oh, she asked the fortune teller,
to tell her 'bout her feller,
the fortune teller couldn't tell her,
why, why, he didn't even say goodbye.

He didn't even say goodbye,
she never knew the reason why,
After telling her he lov'd her
he walk'd right out and left her,
he didn't even say goodbye.
At least he could have left a note,
who knows, he may be on a boat,
And to think he'd leave her stranded,
she'll never understand it,
at least he could have left a note.
Night after night
she would try on her new wedding gown.
Then came the night
when her hero deserted the town,
and he didn't even say goodbye.
We'll never know the reason why.
Oh, she asked the fortune teller,
to tell her 'bout her feller,
the fortune teller couldn't tell her,
why, why, he didn't even say goodbye.
