give me a sleep going are you lonesome tonight do you miss me tonight are you sorry we drifted apart as your memory strayed to a 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're lonesome tonight you know someone said 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 who we met I loved you at first glance you read your lines so cleverly never missed a cue then came act two you seem to change you acted strange and why I've never known honey you lied when you said you love me and I had no cause to doubt you but I'd really go on hearing your lies and they go on living without you have the stage is bare and I'm standing there with emptiness all around and if he won't come back to me then I can bring the curtain down is your heart filled with pain shall I come back again tell me dear are you lonesome tonight thank you thank you for listening please release me baby
