- Verse:
Come sweet heart 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, maybe, 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.
