Fly ye away from my window little bluebird

Fly ye as far as you can away from here

Let not your song fall upon my ear

Go spread your blue wings and I'll shed my blue tears



For the one that I have loved

He has left me and gone

And I am in no mood

For to hear your sad song



Bring not your light into my dark room, yellow sunshine

Waste not your warmth on the coldness in here

Oh trouble me not, go ye elsewhere

Go light your blue sky and I'll shed my blue tears



For the only one that I have ever loved has gone away

And I am in no mood for the sunshine today



Go spread your blue wings

Light your blue sky

And I'll shed my blue tears
