I heard a mournful sound
The girl I love is calling me
She thinks I've turned her down
In the pale moonlight we quarreled one night
Our heart's were young and free
I left her there alone that night
I thought she was two timing me
On a lonesome night, I'm far from home
I heard a mournful sound
The girl I love is calling me
She thinks I've turned her down
She begged me not to leave her there
She said that she'd been true
But a jealous heart could not believe
Oh, how I long for you
On a lonesome night, I'm far from home
I heard a mournful sound
The girl I love is calling me
She thinks I've turned her down
She thinks I've turned her down
On a lonesome night, I'm far from home I heard a mournful sound The girl I love is calling me She thinks I've turned her down In the pale moonlight we quarreled one night Our heart's were young and free I left her there alone that night I thought she was two timing me On a lonesome night, I'm far from home I heard a mournful sound The girl I love is calling me She thinks I've turned her down She begged me not to leave her there She said that she'd been true But a jealous heart could not believe Oh, how I long for you On a lonesome night, I'm far from home I heard a mournful sound The girl I love is calling me She thinks I've turned her down She thinks I've turned her down Explain Request ×
