Lonesome Highway - Solomon Burke

I tried so hard to be your man

I put my future in your hands

And I’ve gone a million miles

To reach your arms

And I did all that I could do But all I did to ya was to worry you

And now today I hear you say

That we must part, that we must part

But when you get out on that highway

And the blues start coming down

Then you’ll see just how lonesome

Life can really be, life can really be Well, then I hope you meet somebody

And they dodge your heart around

Then you cry and wish that you

Were back with me, back with me I know that love is never fair

And if you call me, baby I’ll be there

Just like a fool I’ll always be In love with you

Baby, baby but when you get out on that highway

And the blues start coming down

Then you’ll see just how lonesome

Life can really be, life can really be Well, then I hope you’ll meet and need somebody

And they’ll dodge your poor heart around

Then you cry, cry, cry and wish that you

Were here with me, were here with me I know that love is never, never, never fair

But if you call me, baby, trust me, I’ll be there

Just like a big old fool

I’ll always be still in love with you

Yeah baby, no matter what you do I really love you
