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
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?
(spoken) 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 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
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 rather 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 they can bring the curtain down
(end spoken)
Is your heart
filled with pain, shall I come back
again?
Tell me dear, are you
lonesome tonight?
