You know I've been so lonely, every night
Since you went away
Would you let me down, any night
Is that the way you're made girl

I keep telling myself it's all right
Even though I cry
There's no question why
How could I be happy when

[Chorus: ]
My arms keep missing you
Who's been kissing you
Since you went away
My arms keep missing you
I keep wishing you'd
Come back today

You said you wouldn't hurt me anyway
And I believe in you
We said we trust each other every day
We'd never be untrue

But I keep thinking you're telling lies
Even though I try
There's no question why
How can I be happy when

[Chorus: ]

You know I've been so lonely, every night
Since you went away
Would you let me down, any night
Is that the way you're made girl

I keep telling myself it's all right
Even though I cry
There's no question why
How could I be happy when

[Chorus: Repeat 2x]
