Pete Hamill - You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go lyrics

[Verse 1] I've seen love go by my door It's never been this close before Never been so easy or so slow I been shooting in the dark too long When something's not right, it's wrong You're gonna make me lonesome when you go [Verse 2] Dragon clouds so high above I've only known careless love It's always just hit me from below But this time 'round it's more correct Right on target, so direct You're gonna make me lonesome when you go [Verse 3] Purple clover, Queen Anne Lace Crimson hair across your face You could make me cry, if you don't know Can't remember what I was thinking of You might be spoilin' me too much, love You're gonna make me lonesome when you go [Bridge 1] Flowers on the hillside blooming crazy Crickets talking back and forth in rhyme Blue river runnin slow and lazy I could stay with you forever and never realize the time [Verse 4] Situations have ended sad Relationships have all been bad Mine've been like Verlaine's and Rimbaud But there's no way I can compare All them scenes to this affair You're gonna make me lonesome when you go [Bridge 2] You're gonna make me wonder what I'm doin' Staying far behind without you You're gonna make me wonder what I'm sayin' You're gonna make me give myself a good talkin'-to [Verse 5] I'll look for you in old Honolulu San Francisco or Ashtabula You're gonna have to leave me now, I know But I'll see you in the sky above In the tall gra**, in the ones I love You're gonna make me lonesome when you go
