Don McLean — So Doggone Lonesome

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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?" [Chorus 1] 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 [Verse 3] 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 [Verse 4] 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 [Chorus 2] 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 [Chorus 1] 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
