Lyrics When Sunny Gets Blue - Carmen McRae

When Sunny Gets Blue

People used to love to hear her laugh, and see her smile
Thats how she got her name
But since that sad affair- shes lost smile and changed her style
Somehow shes not the same
Whennnnnn.
sunny gets blue
her eyes get grey and clouded
and the rain begins to fall
pitter patter pitter patter
love is gone
so what can matter
no sweet love a man comes to call
when sunny gets blue, she breaths a sigh of sadness
like the wind that stirs the trees
winds that set the leaves to swayin'
like some violins are playing
weird and haunting melodies
people used to hear her laugh and see her smile
thats how she got her name
but since that sad affair
she lost her smile, changed her style
somehow shes not the same
but memories will fade and pretty dreams will rise up where the other dreams
fell through,
hurry new hurry here and kiss away each lonely tear
and hold near when sunny gets blue
hurry hurry hurry new love — hurry here — and kiss away each lonely tear
and hold her near.
when sunny gets blue
