I get the blues as we dance
I get the blues in advance
For I know you'll be gone
and I'll be here alone
So I get the blues in advance.

Some get the blues from a song
Some when love has come and gone
You don't know how I cry
When you tell me goodbye
So I get the blues in advance.


As I think of our past romance
I get the blues in advance
There's no hope for me now
You will change dear, somehow
So I get the blues in advance...
