Emiliana Torrini - Today I sing the blues lyrics

( Aretha Franklin )

Without a word of warnin'

Blues walked in this mornin'

And circled 'round my lonely room

I didn't know why i had that sad 'n lonely feelin'

Until my baby called and said we were through, hooo

For yesterday this time i sang a lovesong

But today... i'm singing the blues

Hmmmm...

Strikes me kinda funny

How love can be this way

We were lovin' 'til last night honey, yeah

I'm alone again today

And it strikes me kinda funny

How fate can be unfair

That i come right on the losin' end

In every, every love affair!

Yes it must be, it must be meant for me

That i should be the one, be the one to always lose, hooo

For yesterday!

Yesterday this time i'd sing a love song

Whoaoohhh!

Yeah, but right now - im singin the blues!

Who-o-oh ye-he-heah!
