When Sunny Gets Blue
Johnny Mathis
Words by Jack Segal and Music by Marvin Fisher
Surprisingly, this great song did not chart, so we must have learned it from hearing
it on his SUPER successful LP-"Johnny's Greatest Hits", which stayed in
the Top 100 for over 8 years!!
When Sunny gets blue, her eyes get gray and cloudy
Then the rain begins to fall
Pitter-patter, pitter-patter, love is gone so what can matter?
No sweet lovin' man comes to call
When Sunny gets blue, she breathes a sigh of sadness
Like the wind that stirs the trees
Wind that sets the leaves to swayin' like some violins are playin'
Weird and haunting melodies
People used to love to-o-o hear her laugh, see her smile
That's how she got her name
Since that sad affair she's lost her smile, changed her style
Somehow she's not the same
But mem'ries will fade and pretty dreams will rise up
Where her other dreams fell through
Hurry, new love, hurry here to kiss away each lonely tear
And hold her near when Sunny gets blue
Hurry, new love, hurry here to kiss away each lonely tear
And hold her near when Sunny gets blue
