Lyrics
Chorus:
I’m lonesome and blue, but when I look at you
There’s one thing I know is true
I wouldn’t be lonesome, I wouldn’t be blue
If I had a girl like you
I’ve waited a lifetime, I’ve hated the night time
Those long nights have made me blue
I wouldn’t be waiting, I wouldn’t be hating
If I had a girl like you
I don’t know why I’m feeling the way I do
I hope that I haven’t made a mistake in you
Everything seems like one of my dreams
Wake me up and say it’s true
I wouldn’t be dreaming, I wouldn’t be scheming
If I had a girl like you
