Oh, you say that you're going away and leave me
And you say you ain't never coming back
That you're sick and tired of how I'm doing
And you're gonna head off down the track
But darling, before you go, be sure you know how much I love you
And that I'm sorry for the quarrels that we had
If you leave, you're gonna tear my world to pieces
So take it slow, be sure you know before you go
Oh, your wounded pride has blinded your reason
And right now you want to hurt me if you can
The man is waiting here to take you to the station
And you're leaving with your ticket in your hand
But darling, before you go, be sure you know how much I love you
And that I'm sorry for the quarrels that we had
If you leave, you're gonna tear my world to pieces
So take it slow, be sure you know before you go
