Somebody Else Is Taking My Place 1942 JPitt-Payne

Sweet was the start of the story
of love with an unhappy end.
We had a moment of glory
and now you're not even a friend.

For

Somebody else is taking my place
somebody else now shares your embrace,
while I am trying
to keep from crying
you go around
with a smile on your face.
Little you care
for vows that you made
little you care
how much I have paid
My heart is aching
My heart is breaking
for somebody's taking my place.

Somebody else is taking my place
somebody else now shares your embrace,
while I am trying
to keep from crying
you go around
with a smile on your face.
Little you care
for vows that you made
little you care
how much I have paid
My heart is aching
My heart is breaking
for somebody's taking my place.

My love's a fire still burning
and your love a rose that is gone,
My heart for ever is yearning
but your heart just laughs and goes on,

For

Somebody else is taking my place
somebody else now shares your embrace,
while I am trying
to keep from crying
you go around
with a smile on your face.
Little you care
for vows that you made
little you care
how much I have paid
My heart is aching
My heart is breaking
for somebody's taking my place.

Somebody else is taking my place
somebody else now shares your embrace,
while I am trying
to keep from crying
you go around
with a smile on your face.
Little you care
for vows that you made
little you care
how much I have paid
My heart is aching
My heart is breaking
for somebody's taking my place.
