Lyrics

[A] Tonight I'm down-hearted For though we have parted I love you, and I always will And while I'm so lonely I'm rising you only To see if you care for me still [B] Are you lonesome tonight? Do you miss me tonight? Are you sorry we drifted apart? Does your memory stray To a bright summer day When I kissed you and called you sweetheart? [C] Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare? Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there? If your heart's filled with pain Shall I come back again? Tell me, dear, are you lonesome tonight? [Instrumental Break] [A] I hold with affection Upon recollection A romance of days now gone by And often I wonder If I made a blunder By letting you bid me goodbye [B, Instrumental Chorus: Clarinet Solo] [C] Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare? Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there? If your heart's filled with pain Shall I come back again? Tell me, dear, are you lonesome tonight?
