|
Are you lonesome tonight, |
|
Do you miss me tonight? |
|
Are you sorry we drifted apart? |
|
Does your memory stray |
|
To a brighter sunny day |
|
When I kissed you |
|
And called you sweetheart? |
|
Do the chairs in your parlor |
|
Seem empty and bare? |
|
Do you gaze at your doorstep |
|
And picture me there? |
|
Is your heart filled with pain |
|
Shall I come back again? |
|
Tell me dear |
|
Are you lonesome tonight? |
|
I wonder if you're lonesome tonight |
|
You know someone said that the world's a stage |
|
And each must play a part. |
|
Fate had me playing in love you as my sweet heart. |
|
Act one was when we met |
|
I loved you at first glance |
|
You read your line so cleverly and never missed a cue |
|
Then came act two |
|
You seemed to change and you acted strange |
|
And why I'll never know. |
|
Honey, you lied when you said you loved me |
|
And I had no cause to doubt you. |
|
But I'd really go on hearing your lies |
|
Than go on living without you. |
|
Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there |
|
With emptiness all around |
|
And if you won't come back to me |
|
Then make them bring the curtain down. |
