Are you lonely tonight
Do you miss me tonight
Are you sorry we drifted apartDoes your memory stray
To a bright, sunny day
When I kissed you
And called you sweetheartDo 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 you're lonesome tonight.
You know, someone said 'the world's a stage,
And each must play a part.'
Fate had me playing in love,
You as my sweetheart.
Act 1 was when we met.
I love you at first glance.
You read your lines so cleverly
And never missed a cue.
Then came Act 2.
You seemed to change,
you acted strange.
Why, I've never known.
Honey, you lied when you said you love me,
And I had no cause to doubt you.
But I'd rather go on hearing you 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?
