Are You Lonesome Tonight - Elvis Presley

 

Are You Lonesome Tonight - Elvis Presley

Are you lonesome tonight
Do you miss me tonight
Are you sorry we drifted apart
Does your memory stray to the 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 are 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 then came act two
you seemed to change, you acted strange
and why I've never known
Honey, you lied when you said you loved me
and 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 emptyness all around
And if you won't come back to me
Then they can bring  the curtain down
