Lyrics

I've seen love go by my door, it's never been this close before
It's never been so easy or so slow
I've been sooting in the dark too long, when something's not right it's wrong
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
I don't remember when I was thinking of, you might be spoiling me with too much love
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

There are dragon cloud so high above, I have only know careless love
It always hit me front below
But this time 'round it's more correct, it's right on target and so direct
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

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

But situations have ended sad , relationships have all been bad
Mine have been like verlaine's and rimbaud's
But there's no way I can compare all them scenes with this affair, honey
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

Oh, you're gonna make me wonder what I'm doing
Staying far behing without you
You're gonna make me wonder what I'm saying
You're gonna make me give myself a good talking to

I will I look for you in honolulu , san fransisco , ashtabula
You're gonna have to leave me now, I know
But I'll see you in the skies above , in the tall grass and the ones I love
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go
You're gonna make me lonesome
