Julie London - Learnin’ The Blues lyrics
[Julie London - Learnin’ The Blues lyrics]
The tables are empty
The dance floor's deserted
You play the same love song
It's the tenth time you've heard it
That's the beginning, just one of the clues
You've had your first lesson
In learnin' the blues
The cigarettes you light one after another
Won't help you forget him and the
Way that you love him
You're only burnin' a torch you can't lose
But you're on the right track
For learnin' the blues
When you're at home alone
The blues will taunt you constantly
When you're out in a crowd
The blues will haunt your memory
The nights that you don't sleep
The whole night you're cryin'
Won't help you forget him
Soon you'll even stop tryin'
You'll walk that floor and
Wear out your shoes
When you feel your heart break
You're learnin' the blues
The dance floor's deserted
You play the same love song
It's the tenth time you've heard it
That's the beginning, just one of the clues
You've had your first lesson
In learnin' the blues
The cigarettes you light one after another
Won't help you forget him and the
Way that you love him
You're only burnin' a torch you can't lose
But you're on the right track
For learnin' the blues
When you're at home alone
The blues will taunt you constantly
When you're out in a crowd
The blues will haunt your memory
The nights that you don't sleep
The whole night you're cryin'
Won't help you forget him
Soon you'll even stop tryin'
You'll walk that floor and
Wear out your shoes
When you feel your heart break
You're learnin' the blues
