Lyrics Blue Prelude - Mildred Bailey

Let me sigh
Let me cry
When I'm blue
Let me go
Away from this lonely town

Won't be long
Till my song
Will be through
'Cause I know
I'm on my last go-round

All the love I could steal, beg or borrow
Wouldn't heal all this pain in my soul
What is love but a prelude to sorrow?
With a heartbreak ahead for your goal?

Here I go
Now you know
Why I'm leaving
Got the blues!
What can I lose?
Goodbye

Now you know
Why I'm leaving
Got the blues!
What can I lose?
Goodbye
