Are you lonesome tonight Do you miss me tonight Are you sorry we drifted apart Does your memory stray to a brighter 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 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 Then came act two, you seemed to change and 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 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 curtain down Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight
