Are you lonesome tonight
Elvis Presley

Are you lonesome tonight, 
Do you miss me tonight? 
Are you sorry we drifted apart? 
Does your memory stray to a brighter 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 that the world's a stage 
And each must play a part. 
Fate had me playing in love you as my sweet heart. 
Act one was when we met, I loved you at first glance 
You read your lines so cleverly and never missed a cue 
Then came act two, you seemed to change and you acted strange 
And why I'll never know. 
Honey, you lied when you said you loved me 
And I had no cause to doubt you. 
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies 
Than go on living without you. 
Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there 
With emptiness all around 
And if you won't come back to me 
Then they can bring the curtain down. 


Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again? 
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?
