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

l'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
l'm so lonesome I could cry

The silence of a falling star
lights up a purple sky
and as I wonder where you are
l'm so lonesome I could cry
