Richard Rodgers
Little Girl Blue
When I was very young
The world was younger than I
As merry as a carousel
The circus tent was strung
With every 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
What can you do
Old girl, you're through
You just sit there, and count your tiny fingers
Unhappy, little girl blue
You just sit there, and count the raindrops
Falling on you
It's time you knew
That all you can count on is the raindrops
That fall on little girl blue
No use, old girl
You may as well surrender
Your hope is gеtting slender
Why won't somebody sеnd a tender
Blue boy
To cheer little girl blue
To cheer little girl blue
