The blues walked in this morning
And circled around my lonely room
I didn't know why I had that sad and lonely feeling
Until my baby called and said we were through, hooo
For yesterday this time I sang a love song
But today... I'm singing the blues
Now, I know the explanation
But to me that's no consolation
No, no, it just goes to show you
No matter how you love, everybody has got to lose
And since I've lost, I'd rather walk around and woe
I guess I just walk the darkest avenue
For yesterday this time I sang a love song
But today... I'm singing the blues
Now, it strikes me kind of funny how love can be this way
Because we were loving until last night honey, yeah
I'm alone again today
And it strikes me kind of funny how fate can be so unfair
Because I seem to come right on the losing end in every, every love affair!
Yes it must be, it must be meant for me that I should be the one
Be the one to always lose, hooo
For yesterday this time I sang a love song
But today... I'm singing the blues
