[Mary: (spoken)]
I met him at the place we always meet.
He put his arms around me, he smiled.

[Mary: (sung)]
And when I told him,
I didn't love him anymore,
He cried (he cried).
And when I told him,
His kisses were not like before,
He cried (he cried).

I knew that our romance,
Was over and done,
But for him it had just begun.

And when I told him,
Another boy had caught my eye,
He cried (he cried).
And when I kissed him,
A kiss that only meant goodbye,
He cried.
(He cried.)
(He cried.)
(He cried.)

[Instrumental break.]

(He cried.)
(He cried.)
(He cried.)
Then I told him.
(He cried.)
Then I kissed him goodbye.
(He cried.)
Back off, baby [4] .
[Fade.]
(He cried.)
Oh, Lord, what have I done?
(He cried.)
