Elvis has left the building
And will not be returning
This evening
Or any other evening
The rock no longer rolls
The golden bell no longer tolls
The golden record has stopped playing
Hear what I'm sayin'
We're gonna be Lonesome Tonight
'cos Elvis has left the building
Elvis has left the building
No more aloha from hawaii
No more "crawfish" no more "Teddy Bear"
This is definitively goodbye
I hate to be the bearer of bad news
I really hate to sing the blues
It's time we faced the truth
Me and you
We're gonna be Lonesome Tonight
'cos Elvis has left the building
Thank you very much
You can clap your hands all night until they're sore
Cry your eyes out, you can shout for more
You can eat your heart out inside the door
There ain't no more
There's no more blue ???
No more for me and you
You and me
We're gonna be Lonesome Tonight
We're gonna be lonesome forever
And ever
We're gonna be Lonesome Tonight
We're gonna be lonesome forever
And ever
Elvis has left the building
Elvis has left the building
Elvis has left the building
