I've seen love go by my door, it's never been this close before,
|
It's never been so easy or so slow.
|
I've been sooting in the dark too long, when something's not right it's wrong.
|
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go.
|
|
Purple clover, Queen Anne's Lace, crimson hair across your face,
|
You could make me cry if you don't know .
|
I don't remember when I was thinking of, you might be spoiling me with too much love,
|
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go .
|
|
There are dragon cloud so high above, I have only know careless love.
|
It always hit me front below .
|
But this time 'round it's more correct, it's right on target and so direct.
|
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go .
|
|
Flowers on the hillside blowing crazy.
|
Crickets talking back and forth in rhyme.
|
Blue river running slow and lazy.
|
I could stay with you for ever , and never realize the time .
|
|
But situations have ended sad , relationships have all been bad ,
|
Mine have been like Verlaine's and Rimbaud's
|
But there's no way I can compare all them scenes with this affair, honey
|
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go .
|
|
Oh, you're gonna make me wonder what I'm doing,
|
Staying far behing without you.
|
You're gonna make me wonder what I'm saying ,
|
You're gonna make me give myself a good talking to .
|
|
I will I look for you in Honolulu , San Fransisco , Ashtabula ,
|
You're gonna have to leave me now, I know.
|
But I'll see you in the skies above , in the tall grass and the ones I love
|
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go .
|
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go .
|
You're gonna make me lonesome .
|
