The day doesn't have to be special in any way at all It doesn't have to be rainy and gray I don't need to be heartbroken No cruel words have to be spoken But time and time again I hear melancholy's call I might be out in the park Lying in the sun Warm golden beams touching my eyes In my hand a pint With a heart so gay and light A ghastly shade might still carry me away So don't try to raise my spirits By making silly jokes For no matter what you do my soul won't shine My lust for life might be absent but believe it'll be back soon Just let me feel blue for a while The blues doesn't shy away from company It can happen when I'm with the ones I love No need for pitch-black night There is no wrong or right Such a familiar feeling inside No cure for this strange condition of mine And I'm sure, I'm not the only one Like rain it pours down And vanishes in the midday sun No stains remain after it's gone So don't rip off that cloak hanging over me Don't try to reach me on this distant isle It's fathomless, veiled to all live within this world So just let me feel blue for a while Let me feel blue for a while
