Lonesome by Major Murphy

I've seen love go by my door
It's never been this close before
Never been so easy or so slow
Been shooting in the dark too long
When something's not right, it's wrong

You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

Dragon clouds so high above
I've only known careless love
It's always hit me from below
This time 'round it's more correct
Right on target, so direct

You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

Purple clover, Queen Anne's Lace
Crimson hair across your face
You could make me cry if you don't know
Can't remember what I was thinking of
You might be spoiling me too much love

You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

Flowers on the hillside blooming crazy
Crickets talking back and forth in rhyme
Blue river running slow and lazy
I could stay with you forever and never realize the time

Situations have ended sad
Relationships have all been bad
Mine have been like Verlaine's and Rimbaud
But there's no way I can compare
All those scenes to this affair

You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

You're gonna make me wonder what I'm doin'
Staying far behind without you
You're gonna make me wonder what I'm sayin'
You're gonna make me give myself a good talking too

I'll look for you in old Honolulu
San Fransisco, Ashtabula
You're gonna have to leave me now I know
But I'll see you in the sky above
In the tall grass, in the ones I love

You're gonna make me lonesome when you go
