Blue Over You

You have left me, babe,
and now I’m blue.
You have gone away, oh,
and I am the fool.
Can’t sleep at night
‘Cause I’m thinking of you.
You have left me, babe,
and now I’m blue.

My shoes are tattered since
I’ve been walkin’ the streets.
The laces are worn and
the shoes fall from my feet.
Things haven’t  been right
since you left me last week.
You have left me, babe,
and now I’m blue.
You have gone away, oh,
and don’t know what to do.

My mind has been scattered,
and I can’t even think.
Dreams of us together are
forever down the sink.
Things haven’t  been right
since you left me last week.
You have left me, babe,
and now I’m blue.
You have gone away, oh,
and I am the fool.

My body has been shattered,
and my muscles are weak.
My heart is heavy, and I
can feel it skip a beat.
Things haven’t  been right
since you left me last week.
You have left me, babe,
and I’m the fool.
You have gone away, oh,
and I’m feelin’ blue.

My soul has been battered.
I  hate the mid-day heat.
The comfort of the cool
darkness is what I need.
Things haven’t  been right
since you left me last week.
You have left me, babe,
and I’m feelin’ blue.
You have gone away, oh,
and I’m the fool.

I’ve been tattered, shattered,
scattered and battered, and
I’m getting blue over you.
I’d like to see you soon.
Things haven’t  been right
since you left me last week.
Can’t sleep at night
‘Cause I’m thinking of you.
You have left me, babe,
and now I’m blue.
