Don't Pass Me By

I listen for your footsteps, coming up the drive

Listen for your footsteps, but they don't arrive

Waiting for your knock, dear, on my old front door

I don't hear it

Does it mean you don't love me anymore?

I hear the clock a-ticking on the mantel shelf

See the hands a-moving, but I'm by myself

I wonder where you are tonight, and why I'm by myself

I don't see you

Does it mean you don't love me anymore?

Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue

'Cause you know, darling, I love only you

You'll never know, it hurt me so

How I hate to see you go

Don't pass me by

Don't make me cry

I'm sorry that I doubted you, I was so unfair

You were in a car crash and you lost your hair

You said that you would be late, about an hour or two

I said, "That's all right"

I'm waiting here, just waiting to hear from you

Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue

'Cause you know, darling, I love only you

You'll never know, it hurt me so

How I hate to see you go

Don't pass me by

Don't make me cry

Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue

'Cause you know, darling, I love only you

You'll never know, it hurt me so

How I hate to see you go

Don't pass me by

Don't make me cry
