Lyrics and Music by: Bill Dake  (c.)  billdakemusic   ASCAP


MOSTLY BLUE
Just aimless wanderin' since
Your “Adieu”
Has left me ponderin' my
Waterloo
And feeling MOSTLY BLUE

Same heartbreak
They named the hotel after
Cool handshake
Last kiss and final chapter
Huge earthquake
That left me MOSTLY BLUE

Friends tell me  I should savor
Some new exotic flavor
A little candy
To sweeten up my mood
I must admit to tryin'
Tasty morsels, while denyin'
I miss your warm and friendly soul food

Cloudy skies
The perfect cover for these
Bloodshot eyes
I've cultivated longing
For your sighs
While feeling MOSTLY BLUE

Instrumental solo

Friends tell I should savor
Some new exotic flavor
A little candy
To sweeten up my mood
I must admit to tryin'
Tasty morsels while denyin'
I miss your hot and tangy, sexy soul food

If I knew
The way to get it back to
Me and you
Somewhere to bivouac and 
Start anew
I'd have a rosy view
Instead of
MOSTLY BLUE
