Lyrics
- Oft when I gaze through the twilight haze
Mem’ries bring dreams of you
Fancies recall our dear sweetheart days
And I’m just a little blue all through
Chorus
Just a little blue, just a little blue
I’m just a little blue for you
Ever since we strayed apart
There’s a longing in my heart
For the thrill of your smile
And the kissing I’m missing
I’m just a little blue, just a little blue
I wonder if you’re lonely, too
While I dream and yearn for your return
I’m just a little blue for you
- Day after day since you went away
My dreams are all of you
Each sighing breeze is seeming to say
You are just a little lonely, too
