[ Featuring Story & Tune ]
Sweetheart, I love you, think the world of you,
But I'm afraid you don't care for me.
You never show it, don't let me know it,
Ev'ryone says I'm a fool to be
Pining the whole day through.
Why do you act like you do?
You're mean to me,
Why must you be mean to me?
Gee, honey, it seems to me
You love to see me cryin'.
I don't know why I stay home,
Each night when you say you'll phone,
You don't and I'm left alone,
Singin' the blues and sighin'.
You treat me coldly
Each day in the year,
You always scold me
Whenever somebody is near.
Dear, it must be
Great fun to be mean to me,
You shouldn't, for can't you see
What you mean to me?
I treat you sweetly, I'm yours completely,
Think of you, dream of you, all day thru.
I thought I pleased you, whatever seized you
That made you treat me the way you do,
Love you, I always will
Think of you only and still
