Oh, Oh Susie darling.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0I thought you knew?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You were all the world to me.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

All my dreams come true.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

That\u2019s from an old time song, you see.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Yet, I don\u2019t know how we went wrong.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I agreed with you all along.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Now, I am crying all night long.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Just like the words to that old song.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Susie, can you hear me?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I am crying out to you.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You were all the world to me.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Then you\u2019re gone. Are we through?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Think back to the day we met.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You were sitting all alone.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You were shy. You are still yet.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I gave you a freshly baked scone.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You smiled and said hello.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

We started talking, getting acquainted.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I was not in a hurry to go.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I felt like I had been anointed.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Anointed in your pleasant nature.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You were so easy to talk to.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I knew there was nothing fake here.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Before long, I was so into you.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Time passed and we became a couple.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I was happy beyond belief.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I thought there might be nuptials.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Then, you were gone. Not sweet.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Oh, oh Susie darling.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I thought you knew?<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

You were all the world to me.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

All my dreams come true.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
