Goodnight Nelda Grebe, The Telephone Company Has Cut Us Off
Oh, I don't know why I should suffer
I just can't get you off my mind
I wouldn't know if I'll forget you
I'd have to leave these memories behind
Why, why, why
Do I lie awake nights and cry?
I hear your voice when I get lonely
I see your eyes, they're smiling at me
Now, don't you know I want you only?
Though we're apart, I'll never ignore you
Why, why, why
Do I lie awake nights and cry?
How can I make you see
Just what you mean to me?
I can't believe it's true
That you don't suffer too
I wish I had the strength
To keep me just from the sad lanes
But that's old same, so long
It's time to realize you're really gone
I just can't get you off my mind
I wouldn't know if I'll forget you
I'd have to leave these memories behind
Why, why, why
Do I lie awake nights and cry?
I hear your voice when I get lonely
I see your eyes, they're smiling at me
Now, don't you know I want you only?
Though we're apart, I'll never ignore you
Why, why, why
Do I lie awake nights and cry?
How can I make you see
Just what you mean to me?
I can't believe it's true
That you don't suffer too
I wish I had the strength
To keep me just from the sad lanes
But that's old same, so long
It's time to realize you're really gone
