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
<instrumental interlude>
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
