Mood Indigo
Emotional Symphony: Capturing the Depths of Indigo Mood
Lyrics
You ain't never been blue; no, no, no,
You have never experienced sadness or melancholy;
You ain't never been blue,
Reinforces the idea that the listener has not felt deep sadness;
Till you've had that mood indigo.
Suggests that true blues or deep sorrow come with having "mood indigo";
That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes
Describes the sensation of deep sadness reaching down to the speaker's shoes;
While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues".
Expresses the speaker's passive response to the blues, just sitting and sighing;
I always get that mood indigo,
States that the speaker consistently experiences "mood indigo" since their beloved departed;
Since my baby said goodbye.
Connects the mood of "mood indigo" to the departure of the speaker's baby;
And in the evenin' when the lights are low,
Highlights the loneliness felt in the evening when surroundings are dimly lit;
I'm so lonely I could cry.
Expresses extreme loneliness, emphasizing the potential for tears;
'Cause there's nobody who cares about me,
Conveys a lack of care or concern from others towards the speaker;
I'm just a poor fool that's bluer than blue can be.
Describes the speaker as a deeply sorrowful fool, possibly due to the breakup or loss;
When I get that mood indigo,
Reiterates the recurrence of "mood indigo" and its profound impact on the speaker;
I could lay me down and die.
Expresses the intensity of the sadness to the point of contemplating death;
You ain't never been blue; no, no, no,
Repeats the assertion that the listener has not experienced deep sadness;
You ain't never been blue,
Reiterates the idea that true blues come with having "mood indigo";
Till you've had that mood indigo.
Emphasizes the connection between deep sadness and "mood indigo";
That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes
Repeats the image of deep sadness reaching down to the speaker's shoes;
While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues".
Restates the speaker's passive response to the blues, just sitting and sighing;
