Mood Indigo
Embracing the Blues: Unraveling 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 been in a state of melancholy;
Till you've had that mood indigo.
True sadness comes with having the blues, represented as "mood indigo";
That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes
That feeling of sadness reaches down to my shoes;
While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues".
While I remain seated, expressing my sorrow with a resigned acknowledgment of the blues;
I always get that mood indigo,
I consistently experience that mood indigo;
Since my baby said goodbye.
Since my beloved has parted ways with me;
And in the evenin' when the lights are low,
In the evening, when the surroundings are dimly lit;
I'm so lonely I could cry.
I feel extremely lonely, to the point of tears;
'Cause there's nobody who cares about me,
Because there's no one who cares for me;
I'm just a poor fool that's bluer than blue can be.
I am a destitute fool, feeling sadder than imaginable;
When I get that mood indigo,
When that mood indigo takes over;
I could lay me down and die.
I could metaphorically surrender to despair and death;
You ain't never been blue; no, no, no,
You have never experienced sadness;
You ain't never been blue,
You have never been in a state of melancholy;
Till you've had that mood indigo.
True sadness comes with having the blues, represented as "mood indigo";
That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes
That feeling of sadness reaches down to my shoes;
While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues".
While I remain seated, expressing my sorrow with a resigned acknowledgment of the blues;
