Cover art for Mr. Blue lyrics by Catherine Feeny

well i think that this isn't about her in love...but about her breaking up with her lover.

Mr. Blue I told you that I love you Please believe me [maybe she's telling him that she loves him but she just doesn't want to be with him.]

Mr. Blue I have to go now Darling don’t be angry [she left him, but she doesn't want him upset about it.]

I know that you’re tired I know that you’re sore and sick and sad For some reason [maybe he's feeling blue [[hence, mr. blue]] about her departure and he's sad.]

So I’ll leave you with a smile Kiss you on the cheek And you will call it treason [she leaves him with a kiss, and he'll call it treason. it's a reference to the bible when judas i believe betrays jesus and spots him out by giving him a kiss on the cheek. so maybe he thinks she betrayed him because judas and jesus were such great friends, as the couple would be, but then judas betrayed jesus, as she betrayed him.]

That’s the way it goes Some days a fever comes at you Without a warning [maybe she's saying that she broke up with him without a warning.]

And I can see it in your face You’ve been waiting to break Since you woke up this morning [maybe he's wanting to break down and she knows it.]

Mr. Blue Don’t hold your head so low that you can’t see the sky Mr. Blue It ain’t so long since you were flying high [she's telling him not to be so sad about it, because from the first line, she's saying she loves.]

Mr. Blue I told you that I love you Please believe me [she is saying still loves him.]

just my outlook.
