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!
<

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!
