Lonesome and Sorry - Ruth Etting

We were so happy, you and I

Why did we drift apart

I can’t forget you, though I try

You’re always in my heart

There’s no one to console me when I’m blue

There’s no one who can take the place of you

I’m lonesome and sorry

Because you went away

Lonesome and sorry

I miss you more each day

When night time comes stealing

I wonder how you’re feeling

Are you lonesome and sorry

The same, dear, as me

Though you’ve been gone a little while

To me it seems like years

I have forgotten how to smile

My eyes are blind with tears

Our old time friends all ask for you in vain

I always say that you’ll be back again

I’m lonesome and sorry

Because you went away

Lonesome and sorry

I miss you more each day

When night time comes stealing

I wonder how you’re feeling

Are you lonesome and sorry

The same, dear, as me

Are you lonesome and sorry

The same, dear, as me
