So Doggone Lonesome

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I do my best to hide this lowdown feeling I try to make believe there's nothing wrong But they're always asking me about you, darling And it hurts me so to tell 'em that you're gone [Verse 2] If they ask me, I guess, I'd be denying That I've been unhappy all alone But if they heard my heart, they'd hear it crying "Where's my darling, when's she coming home?" [Chorus] I ask 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 [Verse 3] Time stands still when you're a-waiting Sometimes I think my heart is stopping too One lonely hour seems forever Sixty minutes more to wait for you [Verse 4] But I guess I'll keep waiting 'til you're with me 'Cause I believe that loving you is right But I don't care if the sun don't rise tomorrow If I can't have you with me tonight [Chorus] Well, I know I'll keep on loving you cause true love can't be killed I ought to get you off of my mind, but I guess I never will I could have a dozen others, but I know I'd love you still 'Сause I get so doggone lonesome
