Lonesome, lonesome and blue
My arms want to hold you,
In dreams that come true
Lonesome, oh, where are you?
These eyes want to hold you and see you
I'm lonesome and blue

My hands long touch you and love you
My heart breaks at knowing that you're not here
My love keeps on growing; my pain keeps on showing
I just want you back in my world

Crying, oh, I'm crying for you
My tears are never drying,
Always pining for you

Instrumental break

My hands long touch you and love you
My heart breaks at knowing that you're not here
My love keeps on growing; my pain keeps on showing
I just want you back in my world

Crying, oh, I'm crying for you
My tears are never drying,
Always pining and lonesome and blue
