Mr. Songwriter

Hey, Mr. Songwriter



Write a song today



Sing to my baby



Who is going away



She is leaving on the evening plane



To where I don't know



Give me a song so sad that



She won't want to go



Now I am a songwriter



And I heard what you said



I'm going to write a song for you



Although love is dead



I know just how you feel and



Still I have to say



That if it doesn't make her stop then



Then I just turn away



I write the words



Make her cry, make her sigh



Melody to make her see



Tomorrow but tomorrow she'll be gone



Hey, Mr. Songwriter



Tell me what to do



She's gone away and left me now



For somebody new



I thought, I could change her mind



But maybe, I was wrong



Hurry up and wet your pen



And please sir don't be long



I write the words



Make her cry, make her sigh



Melody to make her see



Tomorrow but tomorrow was too late
