Oh dear, what can I do
Baby's in black and I'm feeling blue
Tell me, oh, what can I do

She thinks of him and so she dresses in black
And though he'll never come back, she's dressed in black

Oh dear, what can I do
Baby's in black and I'm feeling blue
Tell me, oh, what can I do

I think of her but she thinks only of him
And though it's only a whim, she thinks of him

Oh, how long will it take
Till she sees the mistake she has made
Dear, what can I do
Baby's in black and I'm feeling blue
Tell me, oh, what can I do

She thinks of him and so she dresses in black
And though he'll never come back, she's dressed in black

Oh dear, what can I do
Baby's in black and I'm feeling blue
Tell me, oh, what can I do
