Jerry Allison / Buddy Holly / Norman Petty - Melody Lane Music - BMI
Well 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, you know it's a lie,
'Cause that'll be the day when I die.
Well you give me all your lovin' and your turtle dovin',
All your hugs and kisses and your money too,
Well you know you love me baby,
But still you tell me maybe,
That some day, well I'll be through.
Yeah 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, you know it's a lie,
'Cause that'll be the day when I die.
{Rod - Solo}
When Cupid shot his dart, he shot it at your heart,
So if we ever part and I leave you,
You say you'll hold me and you, you tell me boldly,
That some day well I'll be through.
Yeah 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, you know it's a lie,
'Cause that'll be the day when I die.
Well, that'll be the day, yeah that'll be the day,
Mmmm that'll be the day.
That'll be the day, yeah that'll be the day,
Well that'll be the day.
