Are you thinkin' about me baby wonderin' how I'm doin',
Does that ol' lonely feelin' ever overcome you,
When you're out in the sunshine, Does it ever cross your mind,
You took my red heart and made it lavender blue

Someday you'll say why did I throw our love away,
You will be like me, lavender blue,

Are you thinkin' about me baby wonderin' how I'm doin',
Does that ol' lonely feelin' ever overcome you,
When you're out in the sunshine, Does it ever cross your mind,
You took my red heart and made it lavender blue

I do love you even though you say we are through,
Now that's gone all wrong, now I'm lavender blue,
Our love was like a river that was flowing,
How could it stop without me ever knowing

Are you thinkin' about me baby wonderin' how I'm doin'
Does that ol' lonely feelin' ever overcome you,
When you're out in the sunshine, Does it ever cross your mind,
You took my red heart and made it lavender blue,
Lavender blue
