Are you loneso

            
me tonight, do

            
 you miss me t

 
onight?
             
Are you sorry 

            
we drifted apa

    
rt?
             
Does your memo

             
ry stray to a 

            
brighter summe

   
r day
            
When I kissed

 you sweethear

  
t?
            
Do the chairs 

            
in your parlor

             
 seem empty an

    
d bare?
             
Do you gaze at

Tell me dear, 

            
are you loneso

[Verse 2] (Talking verses)

           
I wonder if   

         
you are loneso

me tonight
            
You know someo

              
ne said that t

              
he world's a s


tage

And each must play a part.
           
Fate had me pl

              
aying "in love

              
" with you as 

    
my sweetheart.
              
Act one was wh

           
ere we met, I 

loved you at f

irst glance.
              
You read your 

            
line so clever

              
ly and never m

         
issed a cue.
              
Then came act 

            
two, you seeme

            
d to change, y

              
ou acted stran


ge

And why, I've never known.
            
   Honey, you 

            
lied when you 

              
said you loved

  
 me
          
And I had no c

ause to doubt 

you.

   But I'd rat

her go on hear

ing your lies
            
Than to go on 

       
living without

 you.
             
Now the stage 

            
is bare and I'

            
m standing the

re
             
With emptiness

              
 all around.
              
And if you won

        
't come back t

o me
             
Then they can 

              
bring the curt

         
ain down.

(sing again)
             
Is your heart 

            
filled with pa

             
in, shall I co

         
me back again?
            
Tell me dear, 

            
are you loneso

            
me tonight.
