I do my best to hide this low down feeling I try to make believe there's nothing wrong Oh but they're always asking me about you darling And it hurts me so to tell them that you're gone If they ask me I guess I'd be denying That I've been unhappy all along Oh but if they heard my heart they'd hear it crying Oh where's my darling, when's she coming home? Well I've asked myself a million times what's right for me to do? To try to lose my blues alone or hang around for you Well I make it pretty good until that moon comes shining through And then I get so doggone lonesome Well time stands still when you're a-waiting Sometimes I think my heart is stopping too You know one lonely hour seems forever Just sixty minutes more to wait for you Oh but I guess I'll keep waiting 'til you're with me 'Cause I believe that loving you is right Well I don't care if the sun don't rise tomorrow If I can't have you with me tonight Well I know I'll keep on loving you Because true love can't be killed I know I ought to get you off 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 Oh I get so doggone lonesome Oh I get so doggone lonesome
