Larry Cordle - Lonesome Standard Time lyrics

Do you feel a kindred spirit To the sound of pourin' rain Does your heart start to yearnin' When you hear a distant train If you'd like to take that train and ride To someone left behind You don't need the wind to tell you You're on lonesome standard time Do you sit alone and think about An old love from the past Do you feel a bit more empty Every time you raise your gla** If the memory of his kisses Sends a shiver up your spine You don't need a watch to tell you You're on lonesome standard time When you hear them old sad songs Do you hand on every word Do you swear a cryin' fiddle Has the sweetest sound on earth If you shudder at the music Of a hoot owl in the pines You're on lonesome standard time There's a bigger clock a tickin' It crosses every zone The first time your old heart broke Was the time you turned it on It don't never need a windin' 'Cause if it works like mine Well there ain't no doubt about it You're on lonesome standard time When you hear them old sad songs Do you hand on every word Do you swear a cryin' fiddle Has the sweetest sound on earth If you shudder at the music Of a hoot owl in the pines You're on lonesome standard time Well if you shudder at the music Of a hoot owl in the pines You're on lonesome standard time
