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 through the years how I have loved you and you 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
[ steel ]
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 but there'll be no one to dry your tears
There'll come a time within your life dear when you'll need somebody who will care
Someday you'll call my name and I won't answer
For someday you'll find I won't be there
