Feeling Blue?

Today I was wondering
does anyone out there know
Why we say we feel blue
when we are feeling sad and low

When I am feeling sad
find it hard to see the light
I feel dark and gloomy
black as the longest night 

When I am feeling low
and sadness fills my day
I feel dull and moody
like leaden skies of grey

Why do we say we feel blue
does anyone out there know
It seems I feel black and grey
when I am feeling sad and low

Golden heart orange sun
lifts sky feeling blue
white faced silver moon
removes shades of grey.

Yes Julie I do know, it has to do with our blood flow. Your face will take on a blueish hue, When your loving, beating heart, no longer has anything to do.

Julie,
Perhaps it is easier to say blue than melancholy. A little like saying fall instead of autumn, perhaps.
