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 what I was thinking of, you might be spoiling me with too much
love, honey
You're gonna make me lonesome when you go

There are dragon clouds so high above, I have only known careless love
It always hit me from 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

I could stay with you forever, 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 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 will I look for you in Honolulu, San Francisco, 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
