LISTEN LONELY GIRL


Johnny Mathis 1964



Listen lonely girl
I’ve told the sun to shine for you
Listen lonely girl
I’ve told the sky that you liked blue.

I’ve told the breeze to kiss your hair
The way I’d do if I were there
So you’ll remember me
And always wait for me.

There may come a time
A stranger tells you he will stay
Tell him that you’re mine
And gently send him on his way.

Oh, I’ll be home once more
You’ll hear my footsteps at your door
Listen lonely girl
Listen lonely girl

(bridge)

Oh, I’ll be home once more
You’ll hear my footsteps at your door
Listen lonely girl
Listen lonely girl...

Listen lonely girl.
