When you were very young, the world was younger than you, as
Merry as a carousel, the circus tent was strung with ever
Star in the sky, above the ring you loved so well, now
The young world has grown old
Gone are the silver and gold
Sit there and count your fingers
What can you do, old girl, you're through
Just sit there and count
Your little fingers, unhappy little girl blue

Sit there
And count the raindrops falling on you, it's time you
Knew, all you can count on are the raindrops that fall on
Little girl blue, no use, old girl, you might as well
Surrender, your hopes are getting slender, why won't
Somebody send a tender blue boy to cheer up little girl
Blue
