Why So Blue?

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Staring from a cardboard castle down and out One of life's young students finds out what it's all about Paper flutters, angry taxi drivers shout From the pages of a paper, candles shine On a perfect table laid for two who love to dine They suggest a highly recommended wine Once again the same old line [Chorus 1] Why so sad, my fine young friend? Why so blue? [Verse 2] Weary carriage horses stand in single file Someone at a crowded bus stop wears a friendly smile Touching nerves that no one's heard from in a while Papers from the same old file [Chorus 1] Why so sad, my fine young friend? Why so blue? [Bridge] Sometimes, when eyes meet, you know They have to meet again Sometimes birds of a feather Got to fly together [Verse 3] From a dingy attic window candles shine On a perfect table laid for two who love to dine Now they drink the highly recommended wine Free at last and feeling fine [Chorus 2] I'm so glad, my fine young friend Glad for you I'm so glad, my fine young friend Glad for you [Outro] You used to be so blue, you used to be so blue Why so blue?
