Lyrics for My Melancholy Baby
Come sweetheart mine, don't sit and pine Tell me of 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 true and just for you I would do most anything at any time Dear, when you sigh and when you cry Something seems to grip this very heart of mine Come to me, my melancholy baby Cuddle up and don't feel blue All your fears are foolish fancy, maybe Why, you know, dear, that I'm in love with you Every cloud may have its 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 Every cloud may have its 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!
