There's a place where lovers go To cry their troubles away And they call it lonesome town Where the broken hearts stay (lonesome town) You can buy a dream or two To last you all through the years And the only price you pay Is a heartful of tears (full of tears) Goin' down to lonesome town Where the broken hearts stay Goin' down to lonesome town To cry my troubles away In the town of broken dreams The streets are paved with regret Maybe down in lonesome town I can learn to forget (to forget) Maybe down in lonesome town I can learn to forget
