[Verse 1:] I got out my old teardrops tonight Just to try to be on again for size I know that I'll be needing them before too long So I'm making preparations to be blue [Chorus:] Making preparations to be blue Getting ready to win I lose you Taking an inventory of what's left of me and you So I'm making preparations to be blue [Verse 2:] I'm locked in all your memories inside my heart One by one I'll take 'em out and we're apart Seeing you with him I knew my heartaches were old friends So I'm making preparations to be blue [Chorus]
