Hey Mr. Songwriter 
Write a song today 
Sing to my baby 
Who is going away 

She is leaving on the evening plane 
To where I don't know 
Give me a song so sad that 
She won't want to go

Now I am a songwriter 
And I heard what you said 
I'm going to write a song for you 
Although love is dead 

I know just how you feel and 
Still I have to say 
That if it doesn't make her stop then 
Then I just turn away 
 
 I write the words 
Make her cry 
Make her sigh 
Melody to make her see 
Tomorrow but tomorrow she'll be gone 

Hey Mr. Songwriter 
Tell me what to do 
She's gone away and left me now 
For somebody new 

I thought I could change her mind 
But maybe I was wrong 
Hurry up and wet your pen 
And please sir don't be long 

I write the words 
Make her cry 
Make her sigh 
Melody to make her see 
Tomorrow but tomorrow was too late
