Lyrics
It seems like a year
Since I’ve seen you dear
Yet I know it’s been only a day
But the hours seem long
And the world goes wrong
For it’s empty with you awayAnd I wake from each dream
Of your loveliness
To sink once again
Into loneliness
And I’d give all the world
For just one caress
I’m lonesome I guess
That’s allThe faces I see
Don’t appear to me
For it’s your face
I long for today
With it’s beautiful smile
That makes life worthwhile
For it drives all my cares awayAnd I dream of your lips
And your eyes of blue
And wonder if your heart
Is dreaming too
And my own heart is crying
The whole day through
I’m lonesome for you
That’s all

Friday, March 15, 1929 - …I have your picture resting on my dresser & you’re looking right straight at me. How I do love to just look into your eyes. And your lips, my dear heart are so sweet a kiss upon your lips means “the more you get the more you want” & I’ll never get too many.
