When I stop a-lovin' you, baby,
that'll be the day (that'll be the day).
When I stop a-lovin' you, baby,
that'll be the day (that'll be the day).
Today, the world stops going 'round.
Today, my heartbeat starts to pound.
When I stop a-lovin' you, baby,
that'll be the day.
When you stop a-lovin' me, baby,
that'll be the day.
When you stop a-lovin' me, baby,
that'll be the day.
Today, my heart would ache and break.
Today, there'd be no wedding cake.
When you stop a-lovin' me, baby,
that'll be the day (that'll be the day).
Yes, I will stop loving you,
yes, I'll say that we're through
when earth and skies disappear
but just as long as there's an earth
and as long as there's a sky,
I'll always love you, dear.
If you should say goodbye, baby,
that'll be the day (that'll be the day).
If you should say goodbye, baby,
that'll be the day (that'll be the day).
Today, the teardrops from my eyes
fall like raindrops from the skies.
If you should say goodbye, baby,
that'll be the day (that'll be the day).
Yes, I will stop loving you,
yes, I'll say that we're through
when earth and skies disappear
but just as long as there's an earth
and as long as there's a sky,
I'll always love you, dear.
If you should say goodbye, baby,
that'll be the day (that'll be the day).
If you should say goodbye, baby,
that'll be the day (that'll be the day).
Today, the teardrops from my eyes
fall like raindrops from the skies.
If you should say goodbye, baby,
that'll be the day (ooh-wah-aah)—
that'll be the day (ooh-wah-aah)—
that'll be the day (ooh-wah-aah)—
that'll be the day (bop-bop)!
