I see that worried look upon your face
You’ve got your troubles, I’ve got mine

She’s found somebody else
To take your place
You’ve got your troubles, I’ve got mine

I too have lost my love today
And all of my dreams have blown away
And so forgive me if I seem unkind
You’ve got your troubles, I’ve got mine

I’d help another time, another place
You’ve got your troubles, I’ve got mine

She used to love me, that I know
And it don’t seem so long ago
That we were walking
And we were talking
The way lovers do

You need some sympathy
Well, so do I
You’ve got your troubles, I’ve got mine
I too have lost my love today
And all of my dreams have blown away
You’ve got your troubles, I’ve got mine
You’ve got your troubles, I’ve got mine
