Blue Side Of Lonesome Composer(s): Leon Payne Performer(s): Jim Reeves and various other artists
I'm calling' to tell you it's over Yes, darling you're now free to go You're saying' you're sorry you hurt me But you've hurt me much more than you know
You're asking' me where this call comes from Oh, I hope that you won't end up here If your new romance turns out a failure Here's where to find me, my dear
Chorus: I'm just on the blue side of lonesome Right next to the Heartbreak Hotel In a tavern that's known as Three Teardrops On a bar stool, not doing' so well
The floor has a carpet of sorrow But no one can weep in the aisle And they say someone broke the bar mirror With only the ghost of a smile
The hands on the clock never alter For things never change in this place There's no present, no past, no future We're the ones who have lost in love's race
Chorus
