I was just lonesome I was just blue and I was too close to her and too far from you
|
We shared a glass of wine and a dance or two
|
And I held her close to me wishing she was you
|
That's how things happen that's how things begin
|
A heart gets too lonesome and looks for a friend
|
I didn't mean to cheat or be untrue
|
But I was too close to her and too far from you
|
|
Day after day went by with no letter from you
|
And you didn't telephone like you said that you would do
|
And darling I felt so hurt when you let me down
|
So lonely and tired of just hangin' around
|
And that's how things happen...
|
(Too far from you)
