Lyrics Am I Blue - Dave Brubeck Quartet, Jimmy Rushing

Am I Blue

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
