Lyrics
1. Today, has been a sad one
I’ve been all alone
It might have been a glad one
Nothing to atone
One thing did grieve me honest believe me
I’ve been sad at heart
It’s just a year I had a dear
But now we’re far apart
So listen while I plead
It’s company I need
Chorus
Can’t you see I’m lonely, lonely as can be
For I want you only, there’s no one else for me
And you know it
Sometimes dear, I wonder, why you keep away
Leaving me so lonely, lonely night and day
2. You see, I don’t mind telling
What has made me blue
My soul with love is swelling
Love that’s all for you
Cupid has found it, you’re all around it
Say that you’ll be mine
And if you do, I promise you
I never more will pine
So please don’t go away
I’m sad, that’s why I say
