Lonesome,
That's All
 
It seems like a year 
since I've seen you dear
yet I know it's been only a day
but the hours seem long 
and the world goes wrong 
for it's empty with you away . . .
 
And I wake from each dream 
of your loveliness,
to sink once again into loneliness,
and I'd give all the world for just one caress, 
I'm lonesome, I guess, that's all!
 
< instrumental bridge >
 
The faces I see don't appeal to me 
for it's your face I long for today,
with it's wonderful smile 
that makes life worthwhile, 
for it drives all my cares away . . .
 
And I dream of your lips 
and your eyes of blue,
and wonder if your heart is dreaming too?
And my own heart is cryin' the whole day through
I'm lonesome, for you, that's all!
