My Melancholy Baby



[Verse]
 * 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'd do almost anything at any time,


 * Dear, when you sigh
 * Or when you cry,
 * Something seems to grip this very heart of mine.

[Chorus]
 * Come to me, my melancholy baby,
 * Cuddle up and don't be blue;
 * All your fears are foolish fancy, may be,
 * You know, dear, that I'm in love with you.


 * Ev'ry cloud must have a 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.

[Verse]
 * Birds in the trees,
 * Whispering breeze,
 * Should not fail to lul you in to peaceful dreams.


 * So tell me why
 * Sadly you sigh,
 * Sitting at the window where the pale moon beams,


 * You shouldn't grieve,
 * Try and believe,
 * Life is always sunshine when the heart beats true;


 * Be of good cheer,
 * Smile thro' your tears,
 * When you're sad it makes me feel the same as you.
