When Sunny Gets Blue

Barbra Streisand · Simply Streisand [1967]

When Sunny gets blue, her eyes get gray and cloudy

Then the rain begins to fall

Pitter, patter, pitter patter, love has gone, what can matter?

No, sweet lover man comes to call



When Sunny gets blue, she breathes the sigh of sadness

Like the wind that stirs the trees

Wind that sets the leaves to swaying like some violins are playing

Weird and haunting melodies



People used to love to hear her laugh, see her smile

That's how she got her name

Since that sad affair, she lost her smile, changed her style

Somehow she's not the same



Memories will fade and pretty dreams will rise

Up where her other dreams fell through

Hurry new love, hurry dear, to kiss away each lonely tear

And hold me near 'cause Sunny is blue
