Sentimental And Melancholy (2/18/37) - Billie Holiday, Teddy Wilson

Johnny mercer / richard whiting

Sentimental and melancholy

Whenever I think about you

Its only a mood,

A brief interlude

Thats better described as just feeling blue

I suppose that its just my folly

To keep it alive as I do

But its a kind of sugar coated misery

And foolish as it seems

I thought Id like to be Sentimental and melancholy

Whenever I think about you
