Lyrics: (Separate Lyrics)
When the moon's kinda dreamy,
Starry eyed and dreamy,
And nights are luscious and long;
If you're kinda lonely
And all by your lonely
Then nothin' but the blues are brewin',
The blues are brewin'.
When the wind through the window
Blows across your pillow
And tells you sleepin' is wrong,
If love goes a-thirsting
Till you feel like bursting
Then nothing but the blues are brewin',
The blues are brewin'.
Suppose you want somebody
But you ain't got nobody,
You only get a gleam in your eyes;
Till somebody's found you
And put their lovin' arms around you,
You got the feelin' you want to die.
But when the Lord up above you
Sends someone to love you,
The blues are something you lose;
You're so busy doing
The things that you're doing
That love ain't got no time for brewin' ...
The blues.
