Mood Indigo
Embracing the Blues: Unveiling the Depths of Mood Indigo
Lyrics
You ain't never been blue; no, no, no,
You have never experienced sadness;
You ain't never been blue,
You have never felt the depth of sadness;
Till you've had that mood indigo.
True sadness is only known when you've had the blues, represented as "mood indigo";
That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes
That feeling of sadness penetrates down to my shoes;
While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues".
While I remain seated, I express my emotions, saying, "Go 'long blues" (an informal way of saying "go along, blues");
I always get that mood indigo,
I consistently experience that mood of deep sadness;
Since my baby said goodbye.
Since my loved one left me, contributing to my blues;
And in the evenin' when the lights are low,
In the evening, when the surroundings are dim, I feel intensely lonely;
I'm so lonely I could cry.
To the extent that I could cry;
'Cause there's nobody who cares about me,
Because there's no one who cares about me;
I'm just a poor fool that's bluer than blue can be.
I'm a sorrowful fool, feeling even bluer than the maximum level of sadness;
When I get that mood indigo,
When I experience that mood of deep sadness,;
I could lay me down and die.
I feel as if I could lay down and give in to despair, or even contemplate death;
You ain't never been blue; no, no, no,
You have never experienced sadness;
You ain't never been blue,
You have never felt the depth of sadness;
Till you've had that mood indigo.
True sadness is only known when you've had the blues, represented as "mood indigo";
That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes
That feeling of sadness penetrates down to my shoes;
While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues".
While I remain seated, I express my emotions, saying, "Go 'long blues" (an informal way of saying "go along, blues");
