Someday you'll call my name and I won't answer

Someday you'll reach for me I won't be there

For you've grown tired of all the love I gave you

But someday you'll wish that I still care



All of these years how I have loved you

Still I know I claimed you for my own

Someday you'll call my name and I won't answer

For someday you'll find yourself alone



When your hair has turned from gold to silver

And your eyes are dimmed by passing years

You'll remember, darling what I told you

There will be no one then to dry your tears



There'll come a time in your life, dear

When you'll need someone who will care

Someday you'll call my name and I won't answer

For someday you'll find that I'm not there
