Ralph Mooney, Chuck Seals)



Now blue ain't the word for the way that I feel

That old storm brewin' in this heart of mine

Someday, your crazy arms will hold somebody new

But now, I'm so lonesome all the time



Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new

While your yearnin' heart keeps sayin'

You're not mine (not mine)



My troubled mind grows blue

To another, you'll be wed

But now I'm so lonesome, all the time



Now take all those precious dreams

I had for you and me

And take all the love I thought was mine

Someday, your crazy arms will hold somebody new

But now, I'm so lonesome all the time



Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new

But my yearnin' heart keeps sayin'

You're not mine (not mine)

My troubled mind grows blue

To another you'll be wed

And now I'm so lonesome all the time



And now, I'm so lonesome all the time

Yeah, now I'm so lonesome all the time
