From Wikipedia:
“I Don’t Want to See You Again” is a song by Paul McCartney credited to Lennon–McCartney, that was released by Peter and Gordon in 1964 as a single. It reached #16 on the Billboard Hot 100.
It was not until the end of 1964, several months later, that Gordon and I made it onto The Ed Sullivan Show, singing one of our follow-up records, “I Don’t Want to See You Again,” another excellent song that Paul McCartney wrote for us. And one of the things I love about that particular recording is that it features a dual oboe solo—as you know, an instrument dear to my heart.
Peter Asher – From “The Beatles from A to Zed: An Alphabetical Mystery Tour“, 2019
I don't want to see you again.
I hear that love is planned,
How can I understand,
When someone says to me,
"I don't want to see you again."?
Why do I cry at night?
Something wrong could be right.
I hear you say to me,
"I don't want to see you again."
As you turned your back to me,
You hid the light of day.
I didn't have to play,
At being broken hearted.
I know that later on,
After love's been and gone,
I'd still hear someone say,
"I don't want to see you again."
As you turned your back on me,
You hid the light of day.
I didn't have to play,
At being broken hearted.
I hear that love is planned,
How can I understand,
When someone says to me,
"I don't want to see you again."?
I don't want to see you again.
