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 bright 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 I wonder if, 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 in love with you as my sweetheart Act one was when we met I loved you at first glance You read your lines so cleverly and never missed a cue And then came act two You seemed to change, you acted strange And why I'll never know Honey, you lied when you said you love me And I had no cause to doubt But I'd rather go on hearing your lies Than to 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 Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight
