[1st verse:] I'm so lonely, dear Lonely, waiting here Waiting for you in the gloaming While you're far away I long for the day When you'll weary of your roaming [Refrain:] Listening, listening for you All alone feeling kind o' blue Listening For a knock upon the door Growing weary waiting for Your returning, yearning Missing you more and more each day Wanting you more than I can say Because there is nothing else to do Just a lonely thing Listening for you [2nd verse:] How I long for you When the day is through And the shades of night are falling How I miss you dear For I want you near And I seem to hear you calling
