That'll be the day, when I die
That'll be the day, when you make me cry
You say you're gonna leave me, you know it's a lie 

Well, you give me all your loving and your turtle-dovin'
All your hugs and kisses and your money too, 
All you know you love me baby, until you tell me maybe
That someday well, I'll be through

That'll be the day when you say goodbye yeah
That'll be the day, when you make me cry
You say you're gonna leave me, but you know that's a lie 
'Cause that'll be the day, the day when I dies
That'll be the day when you say goodbye yeah
That'll be the day, when you make me cry
You say you're gonna leave me, but you know that's a lie 

When Cupid shot his dart, he shot it at your heart
So if we ever part and I leave you
You say and hold me and you tell me boldly
That someday well, I'll be blue

That'll be the day when you say goodbye yeah
That'll be the day, when you make me cry
You say you're gonna leave, but you know that's a lie 
'Cause that'll be the day, the day when I die

That'll be the day when you say goodbye
Say you're gonna leave, you know that's a lie 
'Cause that'll be the day, the day when I die

That'll be the day, woo hoo
That'll be the day, woo hoo
That'll be the day, woo hoo
That'll be the day
