Don McLean - So Doggone Lonesome

Well I do my best to
Hide this lowdown feeling
I try to tell myself there's nothing wrong
But they're always asking me
About you darling
It hurts me so to tell them that you're gone

If they ask me, I would be denying
That I have been unhappy all alone
But if they heard my heart
They'd hear it crying:
"Where's my darling, when's she coming home?"

Well I ask myself a million times
What's right for me to do
Try to lose these blues alone
Or hang around for you
Well I make it prеtty good until
The moon comes shining through
Then I gеt so doggone lonesome

Time passes slowly when you're waiting
Sometimes I think my heart is stopping too
One lonely hour takes forever
Sixty minutes more to wait for you

Well I guess I'll keep on loving you forever
Cause I believe that loving you is right
I don't care if the sun don't shine tomorrow
I can't have you by my side tonight

Well I guess, i'll keep on loving you cause
True love can't be killed
I probably should forget you but
I guess I never will
Well I could've had those others but
I know I need you still
Then I get so doggone lonesome

Well I ask myself a million times
What's right for me to do
Try to lose these blues alone
Or hang around for you
Well I make it pretty good until
The moon comes shining through
Then I get so doggone lonesome
