Lyrics by Lou Klein

The label identifies the singers as "J. F. Harrison" & "James Reed"

You say you're feeling blue
You don't know what to do
And as each day goes by
It seems the same to you

Then picture in your mind
Someone you left behind
A simple country cottage
And in there you will find

There's someone more lonesome than you
Someone with true eyes of blue
Day by day she wanders through the wildwood
Dreaming of the love that once she knew

She's waiting and sighing in vain, for you promised you'd be true,
While you're living in the bright lights with the merry and the gay,
there's a loving heart you've broken just to pass the time away
And she is more lonesome, more lonesome than you
