Wondrin' Why I'm Lonesome 1928

I never knew that I could feel blue
I never thought I'd be crying, dear
We said goodbye and then with a sigh
You went your way, I went mine
But since you left life seems to be all wrong, dear
And I keep wondrin', wondrin' all day long

Wondrin' why I'm lonesome,
lonesome just for you
Wondrin' if you're lonesome
And if you're wondrin', too
Wondrin' why we parted, dear
Wondrin' who's to blame
Wondrin' if the love
we knew'll ever be the same
Wondrin' why I miss you
since you went away
Wondrin' why I want you
More and more each day, dear
Tho' we are through, I'm wondrin' who
Who'll have your love
While I'm wondrin' why I'm lonesome
And if you're lonesome, too

Wondrin' why I'm lonesome,
lonesome just for you
Wondrin' if you're lonesome
And if you're wondrin', too
Wondrin' why we parted, dear
Wondrin' who's to blame
Wondrin' if the love
we knew'll ever be the same
Wondrin' why I miss you
since you went away
Wondrin' why I want you
More and more each day, dear
Tho' we are through, I'm wondrin' who
Who'll have your love
While I'm wondrin' why I'm lonesome
And if you're lonesome, too
