It's a lonesome old town when you're not around
I'm lonely as I can be

I never knew how much I'd miss you
But now I can plainly see

It's a lonesome old town when you're not around
How I wish you'd come back to me

(Orchestral Interlude)

It's a lonesome old town when you're not around
How I wish you'd come back to me
