Do Not Say Good-Bye
Composer(s): Leonard Marx
Performer(s): The Marx Brothers



You ask me why I feel so blue
You ask me why I cry
You ask me why I look so sad
You ask me why I sigh

You made me love you more and more
And now that we must part
The sunshine leaves, the sorrow comes
Into my breaking heart

Don't say good-bye, Dear, please don't go away
I feel so lonesome, I want you to stay, my Dearie
When I am lonely, that's the time I sigh
I want you only, so do not say good-bye

I knew that sometime you would go
And leave me all alone
I hoped in vain that you might stay
And never, never roam

And though you promise to return
I know that you'll not find
The broken heart, the shattered life
That you once left behind

Don't say good-bye, Dear, please don't go away
I feel so lonesome, I want you to stay, my Dearie
When I am lonely, that's the time I sigh
I want you only, so do not say good-bye
