Are You Lonesome Tonight?

Are you lonesome tonight?
 Do you miss me tonight?
 Are you sorry
 We drifted apart?

 Does your memory stray
 To a 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're 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'll never know
 Honey, you lied when 
 You said you love 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 emptiness all around
 And if you won't come back to me
 Then they can bring 
 The curtains down

 Is your heart filled with pain,
 Shall I come back again?
 Tell me dear,
 Are you lonesome tonight?
