When the moon's kinda dreamy Starry eyed and dreamy And nights are luscious and long If you're kinda lonely And all by your own only Then nothin' but the blues are brewin' The blues are brewin'
When the wind through the window Blows across your pillow And tells you sleepin' is wrong If love goes a thirsting Till you feel like bursting Then nothing but the blues are brewin' The blues are brewin'
Suppose you want somebody But you ain't got nobody You only got a gleam in your eyes Till somebody's found you And put their lovin' arms around you You got the feelin' you want to die
But when the Lord up above you Sends someone to love you The blues are something you lose You're so busy doing The things that you're doing That love ain't got no time For brewin' the blues
