Lena Horne
Blue Prelude
Let me cry, let me sigh when I'm blue
Let me go away from this lonesome town
Won't be long till my song here is through
And I know I'm on my last go round

All the love I could steal, beg or borrow
Couldn't heal all this pain in my soul
What is love but a prelude to sorrow
With a heartbreak ahead as your goal

Here I go
Now you know why I'm leaving
I got the blues
What can I lose?
Goodbye!

All the love I could steal, beg or borrow
Couldn't heal all this pain in my soul
What is love but a prelude to sorrow
With a heartbreak ahead as your goal

Here I go
Now you know why I'm leaving
I got the blues
What can I lose?
Goodbye!
Adieu to you
Goodbye!
