You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go
Ive seen love go by my doors
Never been this close before
Never been so easy or so slow
Been shooting in the dark too long
When somethings not right its wrong
Youre gonna make me lonesome when you go
Dragon clouds so high above
Ive only known careless love
Its always hit me from below
This time around its more correct
Right on target, so direct
Youre gonna make me lonesome when you go
Purple clover, queen Anne Lace
Crimson hair across your face
You could make me cry if you dont know
Cant remember what Im thinkin of
You might be spoilin me too much, love
Youre gonna make me lonesome when you go
Flowers on the hillside, bloomin crazy
Crickets talkin back and forth in rhyme
Blue river runnin slow and lazy
I could stay with you forever
And never realize the time
Situations have ended sad
Relationships have all been bad
And Ive been like Verlaines and Rimbaud
But theres no way I can compare
All those scenes to this affair
Youre gonna make me lonesome when you go
Youre gonna make me wonder what Im doing
Staying far behind without you
Youre gonna make me wonder what Im saying
Gonna make me give myself a good talking to
Ill look for you in old Honolulu
San Francisco and Ashtabula
Youre gonna have to leave me now, I know
And Ill see you in the sky above
In the tall grass, in the ones I love
Youre gonna make me lonesome when you go
