They tell me it's easy, so easy to smile, to cheer up and not be blue.
Well maybe, it may be, so easy to smile, but honest and true, oh what would
You do?

[Refrain]
If nobody ever put their arms around you, who wouldn't be blue?
If nobody ever said "I'm glad I found you," who wouldn't be blue?
Believe me if you went to sleep each night with tear-dimmed eyes,
No one there to even care or sympathize,
If nobody ever whispered "Dear, I love you," who wouldn't be blue?

I've waited and waited for someone to call, but somehow it seems in vain.
I'm lonely, so lonely, when night shadows fall, my heart fills with pain,
And I'm blue again.

[Repeat refrain]
