Now you say you're lonely
Said you cried the whole night through Well you can cry me a river Cry me a river 'Cause I cried a river over you Oohhh Now you say you're sorry For being so untrue So what? Just cry me a river Cry me a river I cried a river over you You drove me (Bye-bye, my love) You nearly drove me out of my head (Bye-bye, my love) While you never shed a tear Remember? I remember all you said Told me love was too plebeian Told me you were through with me And now you say you love me Well, just to prove you do Go on and cry me a river I'd like to see you cry me a river 'Cause I'm tired of crying over You |

I don't hurt anymore
All my teardrops are dried No more walkin' the floor With that burnin' inside Just to think it could be Time has opened the door And at last I am free I don't hurt anymore (Chorus) No use to deny I wanted to die The day you said we were thru But now that I find you're out of my mind I can't believe that it's true I've forgotten somehow That I cared so before And it's wonderful now I don't hurt anymore |

Seems that I read, or somebody said
That out of sight is out of mind Maybe that's so but I tried to go And leave you behind, what did I find... I took a trip on the train And I thought about you, I passed a shadowy lane And I thought about you, Two or three cars parked under the stars A winding stream Moon shining down on some little town And with each beam, same old dream At every stop that we made Oh, I thought about you But when I pulled down the shade Then I really felt blue, I peeked through the crack And looked at the track The one going back to you And what did I do I thought about you |

It brings a tear,
Into my eyes, When I begin, To realize, I've cried so much, Since you've been gone, I guess I'm drowning in my own tears, I sit and cry, Just like a child My pouring tears Are runnin' wild If you don't think You'll be home soon I guess I'll drown in my own tears I know it's true Into each life Some rain, rain must pour I'm so blue Here without you It keeps raining More and more Why don't you Come on home Oh yes so I won't Be all alone If you don't think You'll be home soon I guess I'll (drown in my own tears) Ooh, don't let me (drown in my own tears) When I'm in trouble, baby (drown in my own tears) Oh, yeah, baby don't let me (drown in my own tears) I guess I'll drown in my own tears Oh, mmmmm. |

Grab your coat and snatch your hat, leave your worries on the doorstep
Just direct your feet to the sunny side of the street Can't you hear that pitter pat and that happy tune is your step Life can be so sweet, on the sunny side of the street I used to walk in the shade with the blues on parade No longer afraid, the rover crossed over If I never had a cent I'll be rich as Rockfeller The gold dust at my feet on the sunny side of the street I used to walk in the shade with those blues on parade But I'm not afraid 'cause the rover, he got over If I never had a cent, I'd be rich as Rockfeller All those chicks 'round my feet on the sunny, sunny side of the street |

Hear me, why you keep fooling
Little coquette, making fun of the one who loves you Breaking hearts you are ruling Little coquette, true hearts tenderly dreaming of you. Someday you'll fall in love as I fell in love with you. Maybe the one you love will just be fooling too. And when you are alone with all your regrets, You know, my little coquette, I love you. Someday you'll fall in love as I fell in love with you. Now, maybe the one you love will just be fooling too. And when you are alone with all your regrets, Now, you know, my little coquette, I love you. |

We'll have a lovely afternoon Kiss the world goodbye and away we fly Destination moon Travel fast as light 'til we're lost from sight The earth is like a toy balloon What a thrill you get ridin' on a jet Destination moon We'll go up up up up Straight to the moon we two High in the starry blue I'll be out of this world with you So away we steal in a spacemobile A supersonic honeymoon Leave your cares below, pull the switch, let's go! Destination moon There once was a time when the colorful thing to do Was to call for a date on a bicycle built for two But cars and trains and even planes All have had their day Now the time is due to call for you In the modern atomic way We'll go up up up up Straight to the moon we two High in the starry blue I'll be out of this world with you So away we steal in a spacemobile A supersonic honeymoon Leave your cares below, pull the switch, let's go!

When it rained five days
And the skies turned dark at night When it rained five days And the skies turned dark at night There was trouble takin' place In the lowland at night I woke up this mornin' Couldn't even get out of my door I woke up this mornin' Couldn't even get out of my door Enough trouble to make a poor woman Wonder where she's gonna go They rowed a little boat About five miles across the farm Said they rowed a little boat About five miles across the farm I packed up all of my clothes, trowed them in And they rowed me along Where it thundered and lightnin' And the wind began to blow Said it thundered and lightnin' And the wind began to blow There was thousands of people They had no place to go I went out and stood up On a high old lonesome hill I went out and stood up On a high old lonesome hill I looked down on the house Where I used to live Back water blues that calls me To pack my things and go Back water blues that calls me To pack my things and go Cause my house fell down And I can't live there no more Ooh, I can't live there no more Ooh, I can't live there no more There ain't no place for a poor woman to go |

He was a king uncrowned I know I'll always remember The warmth of his sound Lingering long I'm sure he's still around For those who heard they respect him yet So those who hear won't forget The sound of each phrase Echoing time uncountable by days The things he played are with us now And they'll endure should time allow Oh yes I remember Clifford I seem to always fed him near somehow Every day I hear his lovely tone In every trumpet sound that has a beauty all its own So how can we say something so real has really gone away?

Our little dream castle with every dream gone,
Is lonely and silent, the shades are all drawn, And my heart is heavy as I gaze upon A cottage for sale The lawn we were proud of is waving in hay, Our beautifil garden has withered away, Where you planted roses,the weeds seem to say, A cottage for sale. From every single window, I see your face, But when I reach a window, there's empty space. The key's in the mail box the same as before, But no one is waiting any more, The end of the story is told on the door. A cottage for sale. |

On the day I was born,
Said my father, said he, I've an elegant legacy Waiting for ye. Tis a rhyme for your lips And a song for your heart, To sing whenever the world falls apart. Look, look, look to the rainbow. Follow it over the hill and stream. Look, look, look to the rainbow. Follow the fellow who follows a dream. Follow the fellow, follow the fellow, Follow the fellow who follows a dream. 'Twas a sumptuous gift bequeathed to a child. Oh, the lure of that song Kept her feet running wild. For you never grow old and you never stand still With a whippoorwill singing beyond the next hill. So, I bundled me heart and I roamed the world free. To the east with the lark Tow the west with the sea. And I searched all the world and I scanned all the skies. But I found it at last in my own true love's eyes. |

Oh! they say some people long ago
Were searching for a diff'rent tune, One that they could croon As only they can. They only had the rhythm so They started swaying to and fro. They didn't know just what they had And that is how the blues really began: They heard the breeze in the trees Singing weird melodies And they made that The start of the blues. And from a jail came the wail Of a down hearted frail, And they played that As part of the blues. From a whippoorwill out on a hill, They took a new note, Pushed it through a horn 'til it was born into a blue note. And then they nursed it, rehearsed it, And gave out the news That the southland Gave birth to the blues! |

Blue gardenia
now I'm alone with you and I am also blue. He has tossed us aside and like you, gardenia, once I was near his heart. After the tear drops start, where are tear drops to hide? I lived for an hour, what more can I tell? Love bloomed like a flower then the petals fell. Blue gardenia, thrown to a passing breeze, but pressed, yes, there pressed in my book of memories.

It's easy to live when you're in love And I'm so in love There's nothing in life but you I'll never regret the things I'm giving They're easy to give when you're in love I'm happy to do whatever I do for you For you maybe I'm a fool, but it's fun People say you rule me with one wave of your hand Darling, it's grand, they just don't understand Living for you is easy living It's easy to live when you're in love And I'm so in love There's nothing in life but you For you maybe I'm a fool, but it's fun People say you rule me with one wave of your hand Baby, it's grand, they just don't understand Living for you is easy living It's easy to live when you're in love And I'm so in love There's nothing in life but you |

If they asked me, I could write a book
About the way you walk and whisper And look. I could write a preface On how we met So the world would never forget. And the simple Secret of the plot Is just to tell them That I love you, a lot Then the world discovers As my book ends How to make two lovers of friends |

My story is much too sad to be told
But practically ev'rything leaves me totally cold The only exception I know is the case When I'm out on a quiet spree Fighting vainly the old ennui And I suddenly turn and see Your fabulous face.... I get no kick from champagne Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all So tell me why should it be true That I get a kick out of you Some get a kick from cocaine I'm sure that if I took even one sniff That would bore me terrific'ly too Yet I get a kick out of you I get a kick ev'ry time I see You're standing there before me I get a kick though it's clear to see You obviously do not adore me I get no kick in a plane Flying too high with some gal/guy in the sky Is my idea of nothing to do But I get a kick out of you |

from Dinah Washington - For Those In Love (1995)
You don't know what love is until you've learned the meaning of the Blues.
Until you've loved a love you had to lose: You don't know what love is. You don't know how lips burn until you've kissed and had to pay the cost; Until you've flipped your heart and you have lost: You don't know what love is. Do you know how a lost heart fears the thought of reminiscing? And lips that taste of tears lose their taste for kissing. You don't know how hearts ache for love that cannot live yet never dies, Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes: You don't know what love is. You don't know what love is. |
