Lyrics
BLUER TODAY by Linda Storey
I don't know why I feel so bad today, With no one to kiss my blues away.
Now I've been searching all my lifetime for the man who can take these blues away.
For every man I've known, I feel Bluer today.
When he held me in his arms the other day I felt hopeless and so far away.
So I'll keep searching through this lifetime for the man who can take these blues away
but for every man I've known, I feel Bluer today.
So I sit all alone, waiting by the telephone hoping that the man will call me
who can take all these blues away but for every man I've known, I feel Bluer today.
