Hear the lonesome whiperwill He sounds too blue to fly The midnight train is whinning low I'm so lonesome I could cry I've never seen a night so long When time goes crawling by The moon just went behind a cloud To hide its face and cry Did you ever see a robin weep When leaves begin to die That means hes 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
