It's been a blue, blue day
I feel like runnin' away
I feel like runnin' away from it all

My love has been untrue
She's found somebody new
It's been a blue, blue day for me

I feel like cryin' (cryin') dying' (dying')
What can I do
Fell like praying' (praying') sayin' (sayin')
I'm glad we're through

It's been a blue, blue day
I feel like runnin' away
I feel like runnin' away from the blues

I cannot make believe
That I don't sit and grieve
It's been a blue, blue day for me

I can't pretend and say
That I don't love her anyway
It's been a blue, blue day for me

I feel like cryin' (cryin') dying' (dying')
What can I do
Fell like praying' (praying') sayin' (sayin')
I'm glad we're through

It's been a blue, blue day
I feel like runnin' away
I feel like runnin' away from the blues

I feel like runnin' away from the blues
