Singing the Blues
Heartache Harmony: Embracing Melancholy Melodies
Lyrics
Well, I never felt more like singin' the blues
Expressing a deep sadness, feeling inclined to sing about personal troubles.
'Cause I never thought that I'd ever lose
Unexpectedly facing the prospect of losing something important, possibly a romantic relationship.
Your love dear, why'd you do me this way?
Questioning why the person's love has treated the singer in a hurtful manner.
Well, I never felt more like cryin' all night
Feeling an intense sadness, contemplating crying throughout the night.
'cause everythin's wrong, and nothin' ain't right
Describing a sense of everything going wrong and a feeling that nothing is right.
Without you, you got me singin' the blues.
Expressing the impact of the absence of the person, leading to singing the blues.
The moon and stars no longer shine
Noticing a loss of brightness and hope in life symbolized by the moon and stars.
The dream is gone I thought was mine
Acknowledging the disappearance of a dream that was once believed to be attainable.
There's nothin' left for me to do
Feeling a sense of helplessness and resignation due to the lost dream.
But cry-why-why-why over you (cry over you)
Expressing the emotional pain and questioning why the loss occurred.
Well, I never felt more like runnin' away
Considering running away as an impulse to escape the emotional turmoil.
But why should I go 'cause I couldn't stay
Recognizing the impracticality of running away and the difficulty of staying in the current situation.
Without you, you got me singin' the blues.
Reiterating the impact of the person's absence, leading to continued blues singing.
Well, I never felt more like singin' the blues
Repeating the feeling of being inclined to sing the blues due to the unexpected loss.
'Cause I never thought that I'd ever lose
Emphasizing the disbelief at the unexpected loss of the person's love.
Your love dear, why'd you do me this way?
Repeating the question about why the person's love treated the singer in a hurtful manner.
Well, I never felt more like cryin' all night
Reiterating the intense sadness and inclination to cry throughout the night.
'Cause everythin's wrong, and nothin' ain't right
Reiterating the feeling of everything going wrong and nothing feeling right.
Without you, you got me singin' the blues.
Reemphasizing the impact of the person's absence on singing the blues.
Oh, the moon and stars no longer shine
Repeating the loss of brightness and hope symbolized by the moon and stars.
The dream is gone I thought was mine
Reiterating the disappearance of a once-believed attainable dream.
There's nothin' left for me to do
Repeating the sense of helplessness and resignation due to the lost dream.
But cry-why-why-why over you (cry over you)
