Are You Lonesome Tonight?
Are you lonesome tonight,Do you miss me tonight?Are you sorry we drifted apart?Does your memory stray to a bright summer dayWhen 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 tonightYou know someone said that the world's a stageAnd 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 glanceYou read your lines so cleverly and never missed a cueThen came act two, you seemed to change and you acted strangeAnd why I'll never know.Honey, you lied when you said you loved meAnd I had no cause to doubt you.But I'd rather go on hearing your liesThan go on living without you.Now the stage is bare and I'm standing thereWith emptiness all aroundAnd if you won't come back to meThen make them bring the curtain down."
Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?
