I got a heart that's broken hearted, how do I mend it?
I got a crying jag you started, how do I end it?
But if you're feeling gloomy
Come a-running to me
Meet me where they play the blues
People have said they've seen you dance in hideaway places
People have said you find romance in other embraces
But if your mood is dreamy
And you care to see me
Meet me where they play the blues
Eyes that flirt with a tear
Are common round here
And misery loves company, they say
So they linger 'til dawn
While the trumpet wails on
Hopin' you'll happen this way
I'm getting' tired of sippin' wine and watchin' it bubble
How did our dreams get out of line and wind up in trouble?
But, honey, if you're learnin'
There's a flame still burnin'
Meet me where they play the blues
