Are you lonesome tonight
Francis Connie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Do you miss me tonight
Are you sorry
We drifted apart
Does your memory stray
To a bright summer day
When I kissed you
Do the chairs in your parlor
Seem empty and bare
Do you gaze at your doorstep
And picture me there
Is your heart filled with pain
Shall I come back again
Tell me dear
Are you lonesome tonight
Is your heart filled with pain
Shall I come back again
Tell me dear
Are you lonesome tonight
The opening lines to Francis Connie's song "Are you lonesome tonight" evoke a sense of longing and separation, as the singer questions whether the person they are addressing is missing them. They ask if they feel sorry for the distance that has grown between them, and if their memory ever wanders back to a happier time in their relationship.
As the song progresses, the focus shifts to the physical surroundings of the person the singer is addressing. They ask if the chairs in their parlor seem empty and bare, if they envision the singer on their doorstep. The repeated question "is your heart filled with pain" underscores their concern for the emotional state of their companion.
In the last lines of the song, the singer offers to return to their beloved, leaving the listener with the sense of unresolved longing that began the song.
