[Verse 1]
It seems like a year since I've seen you, dear
Yet I know it's been only a day
But the hours seem long and the world seems wrong
For it's empty with you away
[Chorus]
And I wake from each dream of your loveliness
To sink once again into loneliness
And I'd give all the world for just one caress
I'm lonesome, I guess, that's all
[Verse 2]
The faces I see don't appeal to me
For it's your face I long for today
With its dear little smile that makes life worthwhile
For it drives all my cares away
[Chorus]
And I dream of your lips and your eyes of blue
And wonder if your heart is lonely too
For my own heart is crying the whole day through
I'm lonesome for you, that's all
