Every time you wake in the morning
And you start to cry
And I figure there's something up, baby
But you don't tell me why

But I know, that's why I call you blue
'Cause I figure something, baby
That's why I call you pleasantly blue

Hush-hush, you walk on by
You don't say a word
Talk to me, baby
Talk to me, baby
What haven't I heard?

So I know, yeah, yeah, yeah
That's why I call you blue
'Cause I figure something, baby
That's why I call you pleasantly blue

Oh no, there you go
What's wrong with you?
Come here, baby, come to me, baby
What else can I do?

But I know, yeah, yeah, yeah
That's why I call you blue
'Cause I figure something, baby
That's why I call you pleasantly blue

'Cause I figure something, baby
That's why I call you pleasantly blue
