Taken from SE01:E07 - Lynn's Blues Lyrics: Blue was just the color of the sea Till my lover left me Blue was just a bluebird in a tree Till he said, "Forget me" Blue always made me think of summer Cloudless summer skies, so fresh and warm But now the blue I see is more like winter Winter skies with clouds about to storm Blue was just the color of his eyes Till he said, "Goodbye, love" Blue was just a ribbon for first prize Till he said, "Don't cry, love" And blues were only chart songs Fashioned for impulsive ingénues But now I know, too well I know Too well I know the meaning of the blues The Meaning of the Blues Written by Bobby Troup and Leah Worth Performed by Linda Lawson #LindaLawson #BobbyTroup #Jazz
