[Verse] 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 them that you're gone 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 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 that I get so doggone lonesome
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 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 Well I know, I'll keep on loving you cause true love can't be k**ed 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
