NINA SIMONE

- Blue Prelude Lyrics

Gordon jenkins, joe bishop

Let me sigh, let me cry when I'm blue,

Let me go away from this lonely town,

Won't be long till my sun will be blue,

Cos I know I'm on my last go round.

All the love I could steal, beg or borrow,

Wouldn't heal all the pain in my soul.

What is love? but a prelude to sorrow,
With a heartbreak ahead for your goal,

Here I go - now you know why I'm leaving.

Got the blues. what can I lose? goodbye!

What is love? but a prelude to sorrow,

With a heartbreak ahead for your goal,

Here I go - now you know why I'm leaving.

I got the blues. what can I lose? goodbye!

What is the meaning behind Blue Prelude lyrics?


When we try to interpret the meaning, Nina Simone's 'Blue Prelude' is about love and describes it as a short-lived and ultimately ungratifying experience. The use of 'love' as a 'prelude to sorrow' symbolism underlines the certainty of most heartbreaks. The Blue Prelude lyrics mainly highlight love's failure, suffering, and silence plus self-examination. Conversely, the song speaks to the absolute necessity of tragedy and isolation, disillusionment with love, and breaking up and saying goodbye. The lyrics are full of sadness, heartbreak, and loneliness themes that can be very emotionally overwhelming for younger listeners. The words used are soft, but the overall atmosphere and topic imply that the children need to be supervised by the parents when listening.
