Mildred Bailey - Blue Prelude lyrics

Let me sigh;
Let me cry,
When I'm blue.

Let me go
Away from this lonely town.

Won't be long
Till my song
Will be through.
Cause I know
I'm on my last go-round.

All the love I could steal, beg or borrow
Wouldn't heal all this pain in my soul.
What is love but a prelude to sorrow?
With a heartbreak ahead for your goal?

Here I go.
Now you know
Why I'm leaving.
Got the blues!
What can I lose?
Goodbye.

Now you know
Why I'm leaving.
Got the blues!
What can I lose?
Goodbye.
