Johnny Cash So Doggone Lonesome lyrics

I do my best to hide this lowdown feelin'
I try to make believe there's nothing wrong
But they're always asking me about you, darling
And it hurts me so to tell 'em that you're gone

If they ask me, I guess I'd be denyin'
That I've been unhappy all alone
But if they heard my heart, they'd hear it cryin'
Where's my darling when's she coming home

I ask myself a million times what's right for me to do
To try to lose my blues alone or hang around for you
But I make it pretty good until that moon comes shining through
And that I get so doggone lonesome

Time stands still when you're a waitin'

Sometimes I think my heart is stoppin' too
One lonely hour seems forever sixty minutes
More to wait for you

But I guess I'll keep waitin' till you're with me
â€~Cause I believe that loving you is right
But I don't care if the sun don't rise tomorrow
If I can't have you with me tonight

Well, I know I'll keep on loving you â€~cause true love can't be killed
I ought to get you off of my mind but I guess I never will
I could have a dozen others but I know I'd love you still
â€~Cause I get so doggone lonesome
