Nothing seems center--no appetite--
can't sleep at night.
No hope in sight.
What did I do to be alone and blue?
Since you've been gone,
life has no dawn. I need you so.
Why did you go?
What did I do to be alone and blue.
Since your goodbye,
life's all out of key.
Bluebirds fly by--
they won't sing for me, Oh, Lordy!
You took the glow that thrilled me so.
I'd like to know
Why did you go?
What did I do to be alone and blue.
