Lyrics
All alone ev’ry night,
Just a mem’ry for a souvenir.
On my own ev’ry night,
Wond’rin’ where it was that things went wrong?
Don’t I belong somewhere?

CHORUS
There it is again!
That face I can’t forget!
I think he’s gone,
I know he’s gone and yet,
There it is again!
That smile that comes and goes
Beyond some far-off door
I can’t seem to close!
Ev’rywhere I go,
It turns out just the same.
I’m fine ‘til someone mentions his name!
I may act like I’ve forgotten,
It may look that way,
But then someone says “Jimmy”
And there I go again!
I may sa I’m glad it’s over,
It may seem that way.
But then someone says “Jimmy”.
Mention him, just say ”Jim”
And there I go again!
There I go again!
There I go again!

Optional Lyrics:

Now he’s gone, well, so what!
It’s good riddance! He was wrong for me!
Do I care? I do not!
And the sooner I can turn him off,
The better off I’ll be.

CHORUS
I don’t mind a bit.
In fact I’m even glad.
He’s crazy if he thinks I feel bad.
Sure we had some laughs,
But, adding up the years,
I find on looking back,
I was bored to tears.
Now he’s gone for good,
And that’s okay with me.
There’s lots of other fish in the sea.
I’ve got more important matters,
Things to do and friends to see.
“Gentleman Jimmy” he was wrong for me.
I’ve forgotten him already,
It was all so long ago,
Someone named Jimmy,
A man I used to know.
