Stephan Eicher - I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry Lyrics

Hear that lonesome whippoorwill, he sounds to blue to fly
That midnight train is whining low, I'm so lonesome I could cry
I've never seen a night so long when time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind the clouds to hide his face and cry

Did you ever see a willow weep when the leaves begin to die ?
That means he's lost the will to live, I'm so lonesome I could cry
The silence of a falling star, lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder where you are, I'm so lonesome I could cry.
