[Verse] (Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman) I just got your letter baby Too bad you can't come home I swear I'm going crazy Sitting here all alone Since you're gone I got a mess of blues I ain't slept a wink since Sunday I can't eat a thing all day Every day is just blue Monday Since you've been away Since you're gone I got a mess of blues [Pre-Chorus] Whoops there goes a teardrop Rolling down my face If you cry when you're in love It sure ain't no disgrace [Chorus] I got to get myself together Before I lose my mind I'm going to catch the next train going And leave my blues behind Since you're gone I got a mess of blues [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Outro] Since you're gone I got a mess of blues Since you're gone I got a mess of blues
