There's a place where lovers go
To cry their troubles away.
And they call it lonesome town
Where the broken hearts stay (for some time).
You can buy a dream or two
To last you all through the years.
And the only price you pay
Is your heart 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 filled with regret.
Maybe down in lonesome town
I can learn to forget.
Maybe down in lonesome town
I can learn to forget.
