Little Girl Blue (2006 Digital Remaster)

When I was very young

The world was younger than I

As merry as a carousel

The circus tent was strung

With ever star in the sky

Above the ring I loved so well

Now the young world has grown old

Gone are the tinsel and gold

Sit there, and count your fingers

Old girl, you're through

It's time you knew

Sit there and count your little fingers

Unlucky little girl blue

Sit there and count the raindrops

Falling on you

It's time you knew

All you can count on are the raindrops

That fall on little girl blue

No use, old girl

You might as well surrender

Your hopes are getting slender

Won't someone kindly

Send a tender blue boy

To cheer a little girl blue?
