Verse:
You've come to tell me that we must part,
Some -how I knew this would be.
All I can say, is "May -be some day
You may re -gret, dear, and don't for -get, dear,"
 
Chorus:
May-be you'll think of me,
When you are all a-lone,
May-be the one who is wait-ing for you
Will prove un-true Then what will you do?
May-be you'll sit and sigh,
Wish-ing that I were near, then,
May-be you'll ask me to come back a-gain,
And May-be I'll say May-be.
