Did you ever wonder why
All you do is sit and cry
Could it be that your baby’s left and gone
Your happy days are through
Memories are no use to you
Now you’ve got the blues for your own
You walk through the night and you wonder
While you sing yourself a sad and lonesome song
In time the pain will end, ’til then you’ve got a friend
Cause you’ve got the blues for your own
You say you just don’t care
About a casual affair
That’ll bring back memories better left alone
You can’t chase them away
These blues are here to stay
Now you’ve got the blues for your own
