Am I Blue - Ethel Waters

I’m just a woman, a lonely woman

Waiting on the weary shore

I’m just a woman who’s only human

One you should feel sorry for

It was a morning, long before dawn

Without a warning I found he was gone

How could he do it, why should he do it

He never done it before

Am I blue, am I blue

Ain’t these tears in these eyes telling you

How can you ask me am I blue

Why, wouldn’t you be too

If each plan with your man

Done fell through

There was a time

When I was his only one

But now I’m the sad and lonely one… lonely

Was I gay, until today

Now he’s gone, and we’re through

Am I blue
