Misty Blue

About Misty Blue

"Misty Blue" is a song written by Bob Montgomery that has been recorded and made commercially successful by several music artists. Although Montgomery wrote the song for a different artist in mind, it was brought first to the attention of Wilma Burgess in 1966. It was subsequently recorded by Eddy Arnold the following year, whose version became more successful. A decade later, R&B artist Dorothy Moore released the highest-charting version of the song and it reached the top ten in several different radio formats. Following Moore's revival of the track, numerous artists re-covered the tune, including country artist Billie Jo Spears. Spears's version would also go on to become a successful single release. Numerous other artists and musicians of different genres have recorded their own versions of "Misty Blue". The song is now considered both a country music and R&B standard. more »

Oh it's been such a long long time looks like I get you off my mind
Oh but I can't just the thought of you turns my world a misty blue
Just the mention of your name turns the flicker to a flame
I think of things we used to do then my whole world turns misty blue

I should forget you heaven knows I've tried
But when I said I'm glad we're through my heart knows I've lied
Oh it's been such a long long time looks like I get you off my mind
Oh but I can't just the thought of you turns my world a misty blue
Oh but I can't just the thought of you turns my world a misty blue
