Gone is the romance that was so divine
'tis broken and cannot be mended
You must go your way and I must go mine
But now that our love dreams have ended

What'll I do
When you are far away
And I am blue
What'll I do

What'll I do
When I am wondering
Who is kissing you
What'll I do

What'll I do with
Just a photograph
To tell my troubles to

When I'm alone
With only dreams of you
That won't come true
What'll I do

What'll I do with
Just a photograph
To tell my troubles to

When I'm alone
With only dreams of you
That won't come true
What'll I do
