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 around it’s more correct
Right on target, so direct,
You’re gonna make me lonesome when you go

Purple clover, Queen Anne lace,
Crimson hair across your face,
You could make me cry if you don’t know.
Can’t remember what I was thinkin’ of
You might be spoilin’ me too much, love,
You’re gonna make me lonesome when you go

Flowers on the hillside, bloomin’ crazy,
Crickets talkin’ back and forth in rhyme,
Blue river runnin’ slow and lazy,
I could stay with you forever
And never realize the time.

Situations have ended sad,
Relationships have all been bad.
Mine’ve 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 doing,
Staying far behind without you.
You’re gonna make me wonder what I’m saying,
You’re gonna make me give myself a good talking to.

I’ll look for you in old Honolulu,
San Francisco and 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.
