My World Is Blue Lyrics - Jimmy Cliff

Five o'clock in the morning 

I'm not yet a-sleeping 

Soon the day will be dawning 

Since I broke up with you 

My whole world is through 

I'm so blue 

I should have not been a-flirting 

Now I'm the one who is hurting 

And there's just no telling 

What I'm gonna do 

'Cause life without you is so blue 

My world is blue 

My world is blue, ooh 

Help me mama, help me papa 

Can't you see I made a mistake? 

I'm only living for a loving 

And this heartache, I just can't take 

I'm so blue 

Five o'clock in the morning 

I'm not yet a-sleeping 

Soon the day will be dawning 

Now since I broke up with you 

My whole world is through 

I'm so blue 

You never miss your water 

Until your well runs dry 

You never see your tears 

And then you start to cry 

You break down inside you could die 

My world is blue 

My world is blue, ooh 

Help me mama, help me papa 

Can't you see I made a mistake? 

I'm only living for a loving 

And this heartache, I just can't take 

I'm so blue 

My world is blue, so blue 

I need you, ooh, ooh 

Come into my world, girl 

Said, I need you 

I gotta have you
