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
parlour 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 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 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 and 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 make them bring
the curtain down.

Is your heart filled with pain
shall I come back again?
tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?
