“Learnin' the Blues” is a big band popular song written by Dolores “Vicki” Silvers and originally performed by Frank Sinatra with Nelson Riddle & his Orchestra in 1955.
[Verse 1]
The tables are empty
The dance floor's deserted
You play the same love song
It's the tenth time you've heard it
[Verse 2]
That's the beginning
Just one of the clues
You've had your first lesson
In learnin' the blues
[Verse 3]
The cigarettes you light
One after the other
Won't help you forget him
When you're loosing your lover
[Verse 4]
You're only burning
A torch you can't lose
But you're on the right track
For learnin' the blues
[Verse 5]
When you're out in a crowd
The blues will taunt you constantly
When you're out in a crowd
The blues will haunt your memory
[Verse 6]
The night when you don't sleep
The whole night you're crying
But you cannot forget him
Soon you even stop trying
[Verse 7]
You walk the floor
And wear out your shoes
When you feel your heart break
You're learnin' the blues
