Have You Ever Been Lonely (Have You Ever Been Blue) lyrics

Written by George Brown and Peter DeRose
(As recorded by Jim Reeves, 11/20/61)

Have you ever been lonely
Have you ever been blue
Have you ever loved someone
Just as I love you

Can't you see I'm sorry
For each mistake I've made
Can't you see I've changed, dear
Can't you see I've paid

Be a little forgiving
Take me back in your heart
How can I go on living
Now that we're apart

If you knew what I've been thru
Then you'd know why I ask you
Have you ever been lonely
Have you ever been blue

(Repeat last verse)


(As recorded by Patsy Cline, 8/24/61)

Have you ever been lonely
Have you ever been blue
Have you ever loved someone
Just as I love you

Can't you see that I'm sorry
For each mistake I made
Can't you see I've changed, dear
Can't you see that I've paid

Oh, be a little forgivin'
Take me back in your heart
How can I go on livin'
Now that we're apart

If you knew what I been thru
You would know why I ask you
Have you ever been lonely
Have you ever been blue

Be a little forgivin'
Take me back in your heart
How can I go on livin'
Now that we're apart

If you knew what I been thru
You would know why I ask you
Have you ever been lonely
Have you ever been blue
