Are You Lonsome Tonight
Elvis Presley Lyrics

Are you lonesome tonight,
Do you feel lonely tonight?

Do you miss me tonight?
Are you thinking about me tonight?

Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Do you regret us growing apart?

Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day
Do you remember the happy times we had together?

When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
Do you remember the time when I kissed you and called you sweetheart?

Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?
Do you feel lonely when you look at the empty chairs in your living room?

Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?
Do you imagine me being at your doorstep when you look at it?

Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Does your heart ache, should I come back to you?

Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?
Please tell me, my dear, are you feeling lonely tonight?

I wonder if you`re lonesome tonight
I am thinking if you`re feeling lonely tonight

You know someone said that the world`s a stage
As someone said, life is like a stage,

And each must play a part.
And we all have roles to play.

Fate had me playing in love you as my sweet heart.
But it was fate that made me fall in love with you.

Act one was when we met, I loved you at first glance
The first act of our love story was when we met and I fell in love with you immediately.

You read your line so cleverly and never missed a cue
You played your part so perfectly, you never missed a cue.

Then came act two, you seemed to change and you acted strange
But in the second act, you seemed different and acted strangely.

And why I`ll never know.
And I'll never know why.

Honey, you lied when you said you loved me
Darling, you lied when you said you loved me.

And I had no cause to doubt you.
And I had no reason not to believe you.

But I`d rather go on hearing your lies
But I would rather keep hearing your lies.

Than go on living without you.
Than carry on living without you.

Now the stage is bare and I`m standing there
Now the stage is empty and I'm alone.

With emptiness all around
Feeling the void of your absence everywhere.

And if you won`t come back to me
And if you won't come back to me,

Then make them bring the curtain down.
Then let them close the curtain on this tragedy.

Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Are you in pain? Should I come back to you?

Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?
Please tell me, my dear, are you feeling lonely tonight?
