He was the kind of guy who loved so unselfishly And everyone could see what a prize he was Everyone but me I must be blind I must be the kind who don't know what they have 'Til they're all alone and sad There goes my baby Like the sun fallin' out of the clear blue sky There goes my baby And it's gonna be a cold hard night Now that I finally see How I need him to be Right here by my side There goes my baby Bye bye baby goodbye How could I have a love so fine And not know what it's worth Maybe this empty heart he left behind Is all that I deserve What kind of fool Finds a perfect jewel and can't see how it shines 'Til she's all alone and cryin' There goes my baby Like the sun fallin' out of the clear blue sky There goes my baby And it's gonna be a cold hard night Now that I finally see How I need him to be Right here by my side There goes my baby Bye bye baby goodbye How I wish I could hold him in my arms and say This time I'm gonna treat him right But it's too late There goes my baby Like the sun fallin' out of the clear blue sky There goes my baby And it's gonna be a cold hard night Now that I finally see How I need him to be Right here by my side There goes my baby Bye bye baby goodbye Bye bye baby goodbye Bye bye baby goodbye
