I Get the Blues When It Rains Lyrics by Kay Starr, Count Basie

How About This

0

[Verse 1]
I get the blues when it rains
The blues I can't lose when it rains
Each little raindrop that falls on my window pane
Always reminds me of the tears I've shed in vain
[Verse 2]
I sit and wait for the sun
To shine down on me once again
Well, it rained when I found you, and it rained when I lost you
That's why I'm so blue when it rains
[Verse 3]
It was raining dear, when I met you
And then you smiled, that's when the sun came through
Then it rained again and I lost you
And just why, I guess I'll never now
[Bridge]
But every time the storm clouds gather
Way up in the sky
I see them all and I recall
The happy days gone by
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Well, I sit and wait for the sun
Just to shine down on me once again
'Cause it rained when I found you
And it rained again when I lost you
That's why I, I'm blue when it rains
