He'll never know why he let Betty go
Through the tears, he threw the years away, oh
So long ago and he still needs her so
Alec's back oh, but Betty's gone

And I'm so blue, and I can't see
What I can do, Betty

Dark and it's cold with no Betty to hold
In the Rovers, it's all over now, oh
Too late to know, if she still needs him so
Alec's back oh, but Betty's gone

And I'm so blue
And I can't see
What I can do Betty

[Guitar Bit]

And I'm so blue

Alec's come home but Alec's still alone
No pretending it's the ending now, oh
We'll never know more of this tale of woe
Coz Alec's back oh, but Betty's gone

Betty's gone
