My dreams are blue, my schemes are blue Everything I look at seems to turn to blue Except the sky above, as gray as it can be, that follows me An' my broken hearted song, marchin' along to the blues! The traffic lights, shine overhead They're the deepest blue instead of green an' red Especially on the corner where we used to meet I hear the beat, of a broken hearted song, marchin' along to the blues! < instrumental break > You promised me, you would never make me cry But look whatcha did, when you said goodbye! The moon is blue, the stars are blue Ever since they heard the news that we were through They can't believe that after making you my own, I'd be alone With a broken hearted song, marchin' along to the blues! < instrumental break > Oh! look whatcha did, when you said goodbye! The moon is blue, the stars are blue Ever since they heard the news that we were through They can't believe that after making you my own, I'd be alone With a broken hearted song, marchin' along to the blues! With a broken hearted song, marchin' along to the blues! Words and Music by Mel Green
