	When someone is feeling blue acknowledge it. Trying to cheer them up, though well intentioned, is a denial of the very core of their existence. It also trivializes our humanity.

	Story Behind the Song We live in a culture that takes advantage of people's personal pain. We have turned the natural feelings of grief and mourning into an abnormality while advertising that a Pollyanna cheerfulnes is the ultimate goal of human existence. The reason is simple. It is easier to sell expensive panaceas to unhappy people. Lyrics When My Brown Eyed Baby Gets the Blues She stands in front of the mirror, Staring past the look in her eyes. To a time that never existed. To a place where no one cries. She doesn’t know that I am listening I’m enchanted by her haunting stare Wondering if she ever thinks of me When she wonders what she ought to wear I know she could have done much better, God knows she’s paid her dues Time just seems to weep for a spell When My Brown Eyed Baby Gets the Blues Her gaze could melt an alpine glacier Thaw the bite out of Jack Frosts grip Tornadoes would have to stop dead in their tracks They’d forget their destructive trip Her portrait belongs in Paris, But they’d have to close down the Louvre. Leonardo would have chosen to memorialize her first Mona Lisa would have to move. I wish that I could be just a puff of her breath As she improvises on the NEWS Of the places she’s seen and people she’s met When my Brown Eyed Baby sings the blues. What’s she thinking when it starts to rain Does her vision blur with tears Can she tell the effect she has on the world As the half light of evening disappears Interlude What’s she thinking when it starts to rain Does her vision blur with tears Can she tell the effect she has on the world As the half light of evening disappears I’m afraid to interrupt her As she reveals most important clues. My heart melts as she sighs and smiles at me. When my Brown Eyed Baby Gets the Blues.
