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'd still care
All through these years how I have loved you
Still I know I claim 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'd told you
There will be no one 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 I won't be there
