Marchin' Along 
To The Blues

My dreams are blue, my schemes are blue

Everything I look at seems to turn to blue

Except the sky above, as gray as it can be, that follows me

An' my broken hearted song, marchin' along to the blues!

 

The traffic lights, shine overhead

They're the deepest blue instead of green an' red

Especially on the corner where we used to meet

I hear the beat, of a broken hearted song, 

marchin' along to the blues!

 

< instrumental break > 

 

You promised me, you would never make me cry

But look whatcha did, when you said goodbye!

The moon is blue, the stars are blue

Ever since they heard the news that we were through 

They can't believe that after making you my own, I'd be alone

With a broken hearted song, marchin' along to the blues!

 

< instrumental break > 

 

Oh! look whatcha did, when you said goodbye!

The moon is blue, the stars are blue

Ever since they heard the news that we were through 

They can't believe that after making you my own, I'd be alone

With a broken hearted song, marchin' along to the blues!

 

With a broken hearted song, marchin' along to the blues!
