Misty Blue
Misty Blue: Love's Lingering Echo in Melancholy Melody
Lyrics
Oh, it's been such a long, long time
Expressing a long passage of time
Look like I'd get you off of my mind
Attempting to remove thoughts of someone
But I can't
Unable to forget or move on
Just the thought of you
Thinking about the person
Turns my whole world misty blue
Feeling emotionally overwhelmed and melancholic
Oh honey, just the mention of your name (just your name)
Even the mention of the person's name ignites strong emotions
Turns the flicker to a flame
Small references intensify feelings
Listen to me good, baby
Emphasizing the importance of the message
I think of the things we used to do
Recalling past shared experiences
And my whole world turns misty blue
Revisiting memories causes emotional turmoil
Oh baby, I should forget you
Acknowledging the need to move on
Heaven knows I tried
Expressing efforts to let go
Baby, when I say that I'm glad we're through
Claiming relief from the relationship
Deep in my heart I know I've lied
Admitting internal conflict and dishonesty
I've lied, I've lied
Repetition for emphasis on the internal struggle
Oh honey, it's been such a long, long time
Reiteration of the prolonged duration without resolution
Looks like I'd get you off of my mind
Continued difficulty in moving on
But I can't
Reemphasizing the inability to forget
Just the thought of you, my love
The very thought of the person induces emotional distress
My whole world turns misty blue
Reaffirming the overwhelming emotional impact
Oh, oh, I can't, oh, I can't
Expressing the difficulty in letting go
Oh, I can't forget you
Reiterating the inability to forget
My whole world turns misty blue
Stressing the ongoing emotional turmoil
Oh, oh, my love
Intensifying emotions through repetition
My whole world turns misty blue
Emphasizing the lasting impact of emotional distress
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Repetition of endearment, indicating emotional attachment
Baby, I can't forget you
Affirming the persistent inability to forget
My whole world turns misty blue
Reiterating the enduring emotional impact
