Your rating:
[1st verse:] Honey something's wrong with my eyes and it makes me blue Ev'rytime I open my eyes I'm looking at you Why should you be haunting me all the livelong day Honey if you don't want me why don't you keep away [chorus:] If you don't want me Why do you hang around? Why do you hang around? Why do you haunt me Just like a haunting melody? What did I do to you? What did I do to you? I can't forget you What am I going to do, What am I going to do? I sailed the ocean blue To get away from you In ev'ry foreign place I met you face to face If you don't want me Why do you, why do you hang around? [2nd verse:] I looked at your picture dear and it seemed to speak When I saw your beautiful face I cried for a week I tore up your picture dear, threw it on the floor Then I saw you standing there more lovely than before
