Intro: (2x) Now I know what it means to be lonesome, and I know what it means to be blue And I know what it means to be lonesome in dreams, when there's someone missing you 'Cause I've cried and I've cried since we've parted. No one knows what I’ve gone through And I'd give all I own just to have you back home, ’cause I'm lonesome, so lonesome for you Instrumental (2x) My best friend left me this morning, as the clock was striking four And the smiling face of my darling, I may not see no more Now I know what it means to be worried, To be all lonesome and blue For the one that I love so dearly, has turned her back on me Instrumental (2x) Oh, my mind is full of sorrow and my heart is filled with pain And I feel so broken-hearted, won't you please come back again 'Cause I've cried and I've cried since we've parted. No one knows what I've gone through And I'd give all I own just to have you back home. I'm lonesome, so lonesome for you
