Indigo Blues - Intellectual

It's the mood indigo

Mood indigo

In a sentimental mood

Mood indigo

Just keeps running through my mind

Just an old refrain that keeps on running through my brain

It's blues, don't you know?

Just another sad mistake I made

I couldn't wait for you

I had to keep pushin' and askin'

Don't you see I thought you were the one for me?

Blues always gets me in a sentimental mood

Mood indigo

Sophisticated swing

The moon hangs too low

Look to the falling rain

Let it wash away your pain

Mood indigo

A simple word, a whisper

The smell of her perfume

I ask myself why I had to keep on pushin' and askin'

Blues always gets me in a sentimental mood

Smoking-drinking, never-thinking blues

Blues

Blues always gets me in a sentimental mood

Smoking-drinking, never-thinking blues

Blues

It's the mood indigo
