The Nat King Cole Trio - I Was a Little Too Lonely and You Were a Little Too Late lyrics

(jay livingston, raymond evans) You promised me you'd come back I promised to wait But I was a little too lonely And you were a little too late Too many long nights alone Not even a date So I got a little too lonely And you were a little too late You never did write, you never did call When I had the blues, you were havin' a ball You thought that I'd be here to run to Now I'm gonna do to you what I've been done to Too bad about you, my friend It could've been great But I was a little too lonely And now you're a little too late ~interlude~ You never did write, you never did call When I had the blues, you were havin' a ball You thought that I'd be here to run to Now I'm gonna do to you what I've been done to Too bad about you, my friend It could've been great But I got a little too lonely And you were a little too late!
