One day I had to leave my country, calm beach and palm tree That day I couldn't even cry And I forgot that outside there would be other men But today, but today, but today I don't know why I feel a little more blue than then The day Carmen Miranda died They put a photograph in the magazine Her dead mouth with red lipstick smiled And people cried, I was about ten But today, but today, but today I don't know why I feel a little more blue than then One morning they came to take me to jail I smiled at them and said all right But alone in that same night I cried and cried again But today, but today, but today I don't know why I feel a little more blue than then One night I saw a mexican film These twin brothers tried to kill each other She opened her arms and got two bullets And died sweetly without a sigh But tonight, but tonight, but tonight I don't know why I feel a little more blue than then One day I went down to the underground But I missed the last train And now that I'm just looking around I feel a little more blue than then Look around, look around, look around I don't know why I feel a little more blue than then
