It’s Kind of Lonesome Out Tonight
Don George, Duke Ellington
Wish I had a place to walk to
Wish there was a star in sight
Wish I had a friend to talk to
It's kind of lonesome out tonight
Wish it wasn't getting colder
Wish the moon would give some light
Wish my head could find a shoulder
It's kind of lonesome out tonight
I look at the passing lovers
That slowly wander by
My heart shakes his head and whispers
"How many times can I die?"
Wish I knew some lips to borrow
Wish someone would hold me tight
How I wish it was tomorrow
It's kind of lonesome out tonight
