Lyrics
Darling, since you’ve been away I get sort of blue
Darling, I imagine you feel the same way,too
Refrain
I’m a little on the lonely, a little on the lonely side
I keep thinking of you only
And wishing you were by my side
You know my dear, when you’re not here
There’s noone to romance with
So if I’m seen with someone else
It’s just someone to dance with
Ev’ry letter that you send me
I read a dozen times or more
Any wonder that I love you more and more
Oh! how I miss your tender kiss
And long to hold you tight
I’m a little on the lonely side tonight
