When I went home   I thought that certainly   Someone would leave the door or window open wide for me   And surely there would a welcome light   When I went home   I counted so upon   Somebody waiting up to ask me questions on and on   To ask me where I'd come   Was I alright?   But the door was bared and the window bared   And I knew with an awful dread   That somebody else, some other boy was sleeping in my bed   When I went home   I found that sad to say   You must expect to be forgotten once you've gone away   And so I couldn't stay that lonely night when I went home...      But the door was bared and the window bared   And I knew with an awful dread   That somebody else, some other boy was sleeping in my bed   When I went home   I found that sad to say   You must expect to be forgotten once you've gone away   And so I couldn't stay that lonely night when I went home...
