(Carl Jackson - Larry Cordle)I hear a lonesome dove off in the distance
His cry echoes out through the hill
He's sad that his lover flew off with another
And I know the sorrow he feels.Lonesome dove, we're not that different
You sing a sad song but you're not alone
You've been forever forsaken by the one that you love
I know how you feel lonesome dove.
Ooh, I know how you feel lonesome.--- Instrumental ---I've tried to run from the pain of his mem'ry
But I can't find a place I can hide
And that old lonesome dove is gonna mournfor his love
No matter how far he flies.
Lonesome dove, we're not that different
You sing a sad song but you're not alone
You've been forever forsaken by the one that you love
I know how you feel lonesome dove.
Ooh, I know how you feel lonesome...
