Duke Ellington - The Okeh Ellington [compilation] (1991) by Duke Ellington (보컬) on maniadb.com

Three little words, oh what I'd give for that wonderful phrase,
To hear those three little words that's all I'd live for the rest of my days.
And what I feel in my heart, they tell sincerely.
No other words can tell it half so clearly.
Three little words, eight little letters which simply mean I love you.

You ain't been blue; no, no, no.
You ain't been blue,
Till you've had that mood indigo.
That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes
While I sit and sigh, "Go 'long blues".

Always get that mood indigo,
Since my baby said goodbye.
In the evenin' when lights are low,
I'm so lonesome I could cry.

'Cause there's nobody who cares about me,
I'm just a soul who's bluer than blue can be.
When I get that mood indigo,
I could lay me down and die.

Ev'ry night in dream I hold you close in my arms,
Your dream caress brings happiness,
How I fear the break of day that takes you away,
Hear my plea, come to me, I'm lonely.
Come out of my dream, come into my arms,
For I'm so in love with you,
You're with me till dawn,
But then you are gone,
I?m lonely the whole day thru,
Each night I pray that with the sunrise,
I'll find I'm looking into your eyes,
Come out of my dreams, come into my arms,
For I'm so in love with you.
Come out of my dream, come into my arms,
For I'm so in love with you,
You're with me till dawn,
But then you are gone,
I?m lonely the whole day thru,
Each night I pray that with the sunrise,
I'll find I'm looking into your eyes,
Come out of my dreams, come into my arms,
For I'm so in love with you.
