So Doggone Lonesome
I do my best to hide this low-down feelin'.
I try to make believe there's nothing wrong.
But they're always askin? me about you, darlin?
and it hurts me so to tell 'em that you're gone.
If they ask me I guess I'd be denyin' that I've been unhappy all alone.
But if they heard my heart, they'd hear it cryin'
?Where's my darling, when's she comin? home??
I ask myself a million times what's right for me to do
to try to lose my blues alone or hang around for you.
But I think it?s pretty good until that moon comes shinin? through
and then I get so doggone lonesome.
Time stands still when you're a waitin'. Sometimes I think my heart is stoppin' too.
One lonely hour seems forever. Sixty minutes more a waitin? for you.
But I guess I'll keep waitin' till you're with me. ?Cause I believe that lovin? you is right.
But I don't care if the sun don't rise tomorrow, If I can't have you with me tonight.
I know I'll keep on loving you ?cause true love can't be killed.
I ought to get you off of my mind, but I guess I never will.
I could have a dozen others but I know I'd love you still, ?Cause I get so doggone lonesome.
