Hear that lonesome winter bird
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low

I'm so lonesome I could cry

Did you ever see a robin weep

When leaves began to die
That means he's lost the will to live
I'm so lonesome I could cry


The silence of a falling star
Lights up a purple sky

And as I wonder where you are
I'm so lonesome I could cry
I'm so lonesome I could cry
