Are You Lonesome Tonight sung by Elvis Presley

Are You Lonesome Tonight sung by Elvis Presley

 

Are you lonesome tonight.

Do you miss me tonight.

Are you sorry we drifted apart.

Does your memory stray to the bright summer 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 you are lonesome tonight.

You know someone said that the world‘s a stage and we 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‘ve never known.

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 to go on living without you.

Now, the stage is bare and I‘m standing there with emptyness all around.

And if you won‘t come back to me

Then they can bring the curtain down.
