Am I blue
Verse
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
Woke up this morning, alone about dawn
Without a warning I found he was gone
How could he do it,
why should he do it
He never done it before
Chorus
Am I blue?
Am I blue?
Ain’t these tears in my eyes
Tellin’ you?
Am I blue?
Why you’d be too
If each plan with your man
Done fell through
There was a time
I was his only one
But now I’m
The sad and lonely one, lonely
Was I gay?
’Til today
Now he’s gone, and we’re through
Am I blue?
