When I kissed you and called you sweetheart.

Like the rose on the vine I am clinging to you

As I did when we drifted apart

I am wishing you back to that little shack

Where I kissed you and called you sweetheart

Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare.

Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight.

I have counted the days, I've counted the nights

I've counted the months and the years

I have counted on you since we drifted apart

Tell me, darling, are you lonesome tonight?
