Are you lonesome tonight?
Do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memory stray to a bright summers 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
There was a time when you spoke those words
And sang the songs that touched our lives
Fate played a cruel part and he was gone before his time
I remember when it all began
We were teenagers dancing to the beat
American blues, rock 'n' roll, blue suede shoes
Then suddenly a curtain rose and overnight our world had change
And when he sang our hearts became much more alive
He's gone now and all I can see is an empty stage
But somewhere in the dark there is your light that shines
And keeps on burning through the lonesome night
Is your heart filled with pain
Shall I come back again?
Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight?
