Nat King Cole

Nathaniel Adams Coles (March 17, 1919 – February 15, 1965), known professionally as Nat King Cole, was a musician who first came to prominence as a leading jazz pianist. He owes most of his popular musical fame to his soft baritone voice, which he used to perform in big band and jazz genres. He was one of the first black Americans to host a television variety show, and has maintained worldwide popularity since his death. more »

You promised me you'd 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 I'd be here to run to,
Now I'm gonna do to you what I've been done to.

Too bad about you, my friend,
It could've been great.
But I was a little too lonely,
And now you're 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 I'd be here to run to,
Now I'm gonna do to you what I've been done to.

Too bad about you, my friend,
It could've been great.
But I got a little too lonely,
And you were a little too late!
