Why So Blue

Staring from a cardboard castle, down and out One of life's young students finds out what it's all about Paper flooder's, angry taxi-drivers shout From the pages of a paper, candles shine On a perfect table laid for two, who love to dine They suggest a highly recommended wine Once again, the same old line Why so sad, my fine young friend Why so blue? We, we carriage horses stand in single file Someone at a crowded bus stop wears a friendly smile Touching nerves that no one's heard from, in a while Papers from the same old file Why so sad, my fine young friend Why so blue? Sometimes when I meet You know, they have to meet again Sometimes, birds of summer Got to fly together, oh From a dingy attic window, candles shine On a perfect table laid for two, who love to dine Now they drink the highly recommended wine Free at last and feeling fine I'm so glad, my fine young friend Glad for you I'm so glad, my fine young friend Glad for you, you used to be so blue You used to be so blue Why so blue?
