DEEP IN THE BLUES
Mitchell Parish / Lylte

as recorded by Gene Krupa 
& his Orchestra 
(vocal by Irene Day)


No more Summer, shadowy skies above,
Out of my life goes the one I love!
Sweetheart, you leave me weepin',
Deep in the blues.

No more dreams, but lingering in their place,
There will be tears on my pillow case!
Weepin', instead of sleepin',
Deep in the blues.

Loves will come and loves will go,
But I won't know happiness!
I'll spend each evenin', I guess,
longing for your caress.

There's no more you to give me a helpin' hand,
I'm all alone in a lonely land!
Sweetheart, you leave me weepin',
Deep in the blues.
