Am I Blue — Billie Holiday

Harry akst / grant clarke

It was a morning, long before dawn Without a warning i found he was gone How could he do it Why should he do it He never done it before

Am i blue Am i blue Ain't these tears, in these eyes telling you How can you ask me "am i blue" Why, wouldn't you be too If each plan With your man Done fell through

There was a time When i was his only one But now i'm The sad and lonely one...lonely

Was i gay Untill today Now he's gone, and we're through Am i blue
