One Less Bell To Answer Lyrics - Singles - The Fifth Dimension

One less bell to answer 

One less egg to fry 

One less man to pick up after 

I should be happy 

But all I do is cry 

(Cry, cry, no more laughter) 

I should be happy 

(Oh, why did he go) 

Since he left my life's so empty 

Though I try to forget it just can't be done 

Each time the doorbell rings I still run 

I don't know how in the world 

To stop thinking of him 

'Cause I still love him so 

I spend each day the way I start out 

Crying my heart out 

One less man to pick up after 

No more laughter, no more love 

Since he went away 

(He went away, one less bell to answer) 

Why did he leave me? 

(Why, why, why did he leave?) 

Now I've got one less egg to fry 

(One less bell to answer) 

One less egg to fry 

(Why, why, why did he leave?) 

And all I do is cry 

(One less bell to answer) 

Because a man told me goodbye 

(Why, why, why did he leave?) 

(One less bell to answer) 

Somebody tell me please 

Where did he go, why did he go? 

(Why, why, why did he leave?) 

How could he leave me?
