Lyrics
Woe is me,
Expressing sorrow or distress, feeling a sense of misery.
I'm as blue as anyone can be,
Feeling extremely sad or depressed.
I feel like a weepin' willow tree,
Comparing oneself to a weeping willow tree, symbolizing deep sadness and a tendency to cry.
I'm in a cryin' mood.
Indicating the emotional state of being ready to cry.
Pair by pair,
Observing happy couples around, possibly highlighting a sense of loneliness or unfulfilled love.
I see happy lovers everywhere,
Noticing joyful pairs everywhere.
But the one I love don't seem to care,
Expressing that the person the singer loves doesn't reciprocate the feelings.
I'm in a cryin' mood.
