[Verse 1]
In the pale moonlight, we quarreled one night
Our hearts were young and free
I left her there alone that night
I thought she was two-timing me

[Chorus]
On a lonesome night, I'm far from home
I heard a mournful sound
The girl I love is calling me
She thinks I turned her down

[Verse 2]
She begged me not to leave her there
She swore that she'd been true
But a jealous heart can not believe
Oh, how I long for you

[Chorus]
On a lonesome night, I'm far from home
I heard a mournful sound
The girl I love is calling me
She thinks I turned her down

[Bass breakdown]
[Verse 3]
So now I'm on my way back home
Sweetheart, do you still care?
I promise never to leave your side
And your love I'll always share

[Chorus]
On a lonesome night so far from home
I heard a mournful sound
The girl I love is calling me
She thinks I turned her down

[Outro]
She thinks I've turned her down
