Lyrics My Melancholy Baby - Leon Redbone

My Melancholy Baby

Come sweetheart, mine, don’t sit and pine
Tell me of the cares that make you feel so blue
What have I done?
Answer me hon'
Have I ever said an unkind word to you?
My love is true and just for you
I’d do almost anything at anytime
Dear, when you sigh or when you cry
Something seems to grip this very heart of mine
Come to me, my melancholy baby
Cuddle up and don’t feel blue
All your fears are foolish fancy
Maybe you know, dear, that I’m in love with you
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile, my honey, dear, while I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy too
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile, my honey, dear, while I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy too
