You're here today and gone tomorrow
Our love would always be a hidden love affair
I know you love me but I'm just a wanderer
Today I love you but tomorrow I may not care

For absence ever makes the hearts grow fonder
Oh I get lonesome for someone's company
You're here today and gone tomorrow
And my loving you is just a fantasy

[ steel - guitar ]
When you're gone I wish we'd never met
For the memory remains within my heart
You're here today and gone tomorrow
We can't be happy so I think it's best we part

For absence ever makes the hearts grow fonder...
