The Carter Family - Lonesome for You lyrics

[Verse 1] Now I know what it means to be lonesome And I know what it means to be blue And I know what it means to be lonesome in dreams When there's someone missing you [Chorus] Because I've tried and I've tried since we've parted There is no one knows what I've gone through I'd give all that I own just to have you back home Because I'm lonesome, lonesome for you [Verse 2] My best friend left me this morning As the clock was striking four And the smiling face of my darling I may not see no more Now I know what it means to be worried To be all lonesome and blue For the one that I love so dearly Has turned her back on me Oh, my mind is full of sorrow And my heart is filled with pain And I feel so broken-hearted Won't you please come back again [Chorus]
