Blues in My Heart [February 27, 1958]
BENNY CARTER, IRVING MILLS
(Wish I could lose these blues in my heart)
Blues in my heart oh how it aches
Nobody knows the sorrow it takes
I should have known right from the start
You'd leave me with these blues in my heart
(Gone is the love I couldn't hold
Just like a lamb that's straight from the fold)
What can I do what can I say
Blues in my heart have got me this way
Rain's falling down, down from the sky
Why even the sun's beginning to cry
Everything's wrong since we're apart
Wish I could lose these blues in my heart
