The Lyrics

WERE YOU LONESOME LAST NIGHT?

Were you lonesome last night?
If you were, serves you right.
I was waiting right here by my phone.
I was hoping maybe
You were thinking of me,
But instead you just stayed on your own.

Was it something that happened
Between us before?
Was it something I said
Or even worse, was it more?
Tell me, was I to blame?
Will you call me again?
Is it why you were lonesome last night?

No wonder that you were lonesome last night.
You know, my mate said you were mad at me,
But didn’t tell me why.
I’m wondering if it dates back to when we first met.
Day one was in the bar,
I saw you with your friends.
I picked you out because you looked so pretty in your dress.
And then day two,
You changed your hair from black to fair,
But why, I’ll never know.
Baby, I hoped that when we kissed that night,
That everything would be all right.
I had no cause to think otherwise,
But obviously I was wrong.
Now my days are sad, and I’m left feeling bad,
Because I have no idea
What I did to upset you.
And it has all come to an end.

Now I think it’s a shame
That you won’t call my name
Which is why you were lonesome last night.

You know, I wonder if you're lonesome tonight. I wonder a lot of things -- Are you human? How do you live with yourself? Are you a REPTILE WITH A NICE HAIRDO? You lied to me when you said you loved me. You never LOVED ME-E-E!! Remember when you said it was forever?? (maniacal laughter) What's forever mean? Till another guy shows up with a better CAR!! Is that going to make you GROW AS A PERSON .. HONEY!! Are you gonna learn new things? Cause the only thing you ever learned from me was how to BREAK MY HEART!
