LYRICS

Something old, the times gone by

Something new, these tears I cry

Something borrowed were those lips, my lips knew

And that's why I'm something blue

Something old, the vows we made

Something new, the price I paid

Something borrowed, love was tried but not true

Now my life is something blue

I guess that I had better smile

Walking behind you down the aisle

I feel I'm walking to my doom

I'm really not the best man in this room

Something old, the dreams we planned

Something new, his wedding band

Something borrowed, was the heart I gave you

You returned it torn in two

Something old, the dreams we planned

Something new, his wedding band

Something borrowed, was the heart I gave you

You returned it torn in two

And that's why

And that's why I'm something blue
