My Melancholy Baby by Ernie Burnett Lyrics
(Verse)
Come, sweetheart mine
Don't sit and pine
Tell me all the cares that make you feel so blue
What have I done?
Answer me, hon
Have I ever said an unkind word to you?
My love is blue
And just for you
I'd do almost anything at any time
Dear, when you sigh
Or when you cry
Something seems to grip this very heart of mine
(Chorus)
Come to me, my melancholy baby
Cuddle up and don't be blue
All your fears are foolish fancy, maybe
You know, dear, that I am strong for you
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile, my honey, dear
While I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy, too
(Verse 2)
Birds in the trees
Whispering breeze
Should not fail to rouse you into peaceful dreams
So tell me why
Badly you sigh
Sitting at the window where the pale moon beams
You shouldn't grieve
Try and believe
Life is always sunshine when the heart beats true
Be of good cheer
Smile through your tears
When you're sad, it makes me feel the same as you
(Chorus)
Come to me, my melancholy baby
Cuddle up and don't be blue
All your fears are foolish fancy, maybe
You know, dear, that I am strong for you
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile, my honey, dear
While I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy, too
Come, sweetheart mine
Don't sit and pine
Tell me all the cares that make you feel so blue
What have I done?
Answer me, hon
Have I ever said an unkind word to you?
My love is blue
And just for you
I'd do almost anything at any time
Dear, when you sigh
Or when you cry
Something seems to grip this very heart of mine
(Chorus)
Come to me, my melancholy baby
Cuddle up and don't be blue
All your fears are foolish fancy, maybe
You know, dear, that I am strong for you
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile, my honey, dear
While I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy, too
(Verse 2)
Birds in the trees
Whispering breeze
Should not fail to rouse you into peaceful dreams
So tell me why
Badly you sigh
Sitting at the window where the pale moon beams
You shouldn't grieve
Try and believe
Life is always sunshine when the heart beats true
Be of good cheer
Smile through your tears
When you're sad, it makes me feel the same as you
(Chorus)
Come to me, my melancholy baby
Cuddle up and don't be blue
All your fears are foolish fancy, maybe
You know, dear, that I am strong for you
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Wait until the sun shines through
Smile, my honey, dear
While I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy, too
