Nat King Cole, Willie The Lion Smith, Lee Young, Nat King Cole, Willie Smith, Lee Young - I Was a Little Too Lonely and You Were a Little Too Late lyrics

You promised me youd come back,
I promised to wait.
But I was a little too lonely,
And you were a little too late.
Too many long nights alone,
Not even a date.
So I got a little too lonely,
And you were a little too late.
You never did write, you never did call.
When I had the blues, you were havin a ball.
You thought that Id be here to run to,
Now Im gonna do to you what Ive been done to.
Too bad about you, my friend,
It couldve been great.
But I was a little too lonely,
And now youre a little too late.
~interlude~
You never did write, you never did call.
When I had the blues, you were havin a ball.
You thought that Id be here to run to,
Now Im gonna do to you what Ive been done to.
Too bad about you, my friend,
It couldve been great.
But I got a little too lonely,
And you were a little too late!
