Longing, longing, longing for you
Longing, longing, lonely and blue
Daytime, night time, what can I do
I just keep on longing for you
You said you would love me forever
And I put my faith in your vow
So why don't you make an endeavor
To come and be with me right now
You phoned me to come to St. Louis
I soon got a bill for the call
But after I got to St. Louis
You left me and went to St. Paul
We spent every cent of my money
And then you were gone out of sight
Though I should forget you My Honey
I'm longing to kiss you tonight
Longing, longing, longing for you
Longing, longing, lonely and blue
Daytime, night time, what can I do
I just keep on longing for you
I just keep on longing for you.
