Verse:
You told me that you loved me true, And I believed in you.
You broke your vow, and now somehow, It seems I'm always blue,
But there'll come a day, When you're far away,
You'll sit alone and cry, For me you'll sigh, And the days that have gone by.
 
Chorus:
Someday, Sweetheart, You may be sorry.
For what you've done, To my poor heart.
You may regret, The vows you've broken,
The things you did, That made us drift apart.
You're happy now, And can't see how,
The weary blues, Will ever come to you.
But as you sow, So shall you reap, dear,
And what you reap will make you weep, Someday, Sweetheart!
