I said
it wasn't long ago I
was doin' real good
Don't you know my baby was acting
Like a sweet girl should
But she found another
One alone and I got the news
And now I'm here suffering from
a touch of the blues
My friends say I look bad,
and I guess they're right
I can't eat or sleep, no, no,
baby I toss and turn all night
My eyes are all red
Oh
Lord, and I'm dragging my shoes
But I'm not really worried, no,
no, baby, it's just a touch of blue
I said it's a touch of blue
I went to see my doctor
But he said I was all right
I didn't get a prescription, no, no, baby
Just some good advice
He said to forget you, forget you
Oh
Lord, it's not being your fool
If you wanted to lose this
touch of the blues
Oh, I guess time will
ease this pain in my
heart
Then I'll find a new lover,
baby
One love will make a brand new start
And I hope that you'll love me
One love will always be true
An d don't leave
me here suffering
With a touch of the moon
And I don't want you to leave me here,
