Now I know what it means to be lonesome And I know what it means to be blue And I know what it means to be lonesome in dreams Someone's missing you Now I've sighed and I've cried since we parted There is no one knows what I've gone through I'd give all that I own just to have you back home Lonesome for you Well, my best friend she left me this morning The clock was striking four The smiling face of my baby I may not see no more Now I know what it means to be lonesome And I know what it means to be blue And I know what it means to be lonesome in dreams Someone's missing you Baby, I've sighed and I've cried since we parted There is no one knows what I've gone through I'd give all that I own if I had you back home Cause I'm lonesome, lonesome for you guitar solo I know what it means to be weary To be all trouble in mind When the one that you love so dearly Have gone and left you behind Now I know what it means to be weary To be all lonesome and blue When the one you love so dearly Have turned her back on you Now I've sighed and I've cried since we parted No one knows what I've gone through I'd give all that I own just to have you back home Now I'm lonesome, lonesome for you
