Lyrics
My Mood Is Blue
© Billy Morgan, 2006, sung by Victoria Boland
Verse 1
The way I saw the world was bright and rosy with love.
No longer dull in shades of gray.
For you could do no wrong.
I thought our love was strong,
But then you ran away?.
Chorus
My Mood Is Blue because I?m thinking of you,
For now you never think of me?.
You?re laughing with your honey,
But I don?t find it funny.
Remember the dreams we shared?
My Mood Is Blue because I?m thinking of you.
It seems you never cared.
Verse 2
I try very hard to shake away the blues
By talking to friends of mine by phone.
Although they?ve been so kind,
When you are on my mind I still feel all alone?.
Chorus
Bridge
Our Picture on the wall made me feel the way we were,
But now I?m feeling blue again because you play with her.
You made me the loser.
You claimed another prize.
The games you play have opened my eyes.
Chorus
Coda
Oh, oh I?m Blue?
Over You!
My Mood Is Blue because I?m thinking of you.
It seems you never cared.
