[00:00.00]Today I Sing the Blues - Helen Humes
[00:16.49]Without a word of warnin'
[00:20.11]The blues came in this mornin'
[00:23.93]And circled around my lonely room
[00:28.31]I didn't know why I had that sad 'n lonely feelin'
[00:35.34]Until my baby called and said were through
[00:45.51]Why yesterday I sang a love song
[00:51.33]But today I'm singing the blues
[01:03.23]I know the explanation
[01:07.03]But that's no consolation
[01:10.89]No matter how you love
[01:13.60]You can lose and
[01:15.51]Since I lost i've got to walk around and worry
[01:22.27]And Walk along the darkest avenues
[01:32.35]Cause yesterday I sang a love song
[01:38.60]But today I'm singing the blues
[01:48.84]Now it strikes me kinda funny
[01:52.73]That life should be this way
[01:56.57]To be so much and love last night
[02:00.49]And alone again today
[02:04.36]But it was be writen for me that fate should be unfair
[02:12.08]'Cos I come out on the losin' end in every love affair
[02:20.55]Yes it must be written for me
[02:24.47]That I should always be the one to lose
[02:34.22]Why yesterday I sang a love song
[02:40.05]But today I'm singing the blues
