TELL ME
(Callahan / Kortlander)
Doris Day - 1951


Tell me why nights are lonesome
Tell my why days are blue
Tell me why all the sunshine
Comes just the one time when I’m with you

Why do I hate to go, dear?
And hate to say ‘goodbye’?
Now somehow it’s always so, dear
And if you know, dear, please tell me why?

Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm
La-da, la-la-da-de

Why do I hate to go, dear?
And hate to say ‘goodbye’?
Now somehow it’s always so, dear
And if you know, dear, please tell me why?
