When Sunny gets Blue

Uma das musicas mais marcantes, tornou-se um "jazz standard" interpretado por diversos cantores (as) e músicos. 

Das versões mais recentes, fica a distinção para Norah Jones (assista no Youtube) 

Um caso perfeito onde a letra se conecta com extrema elegância ao tom da musica....

When Sunny gets blueHer eyes get gray and cloudyThen the rain begins to fallPitter patter, pitter patterLove is gone so what can matterNo sweet lovin' man comes to call
When Sunny gets blueShe breathes a sigh of sadnessLike the wind that stirs the treesWind that sets the leaves to swayin'Like some violins are playin'Weird and haunting melodies
People used to love toHear her laugh, see her smileThat's how she got her nameSince that sad affairShe's lost her smileChanged her styleSomehow she's not the same
But mem'ries will fadeAnd pretty dreams will rise upWhere her other dreams fell throughHurry, new love, hurry hereTo kiss away each lonely tearAnd hold her near when Sunny gets blue
Hurry, new love, hurry hereTo kiss away each lonely tearAnd hold her near when Sunny gets blue
