Mood
LE BAND Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You ain't never been blue; no, no, no,
You ain't never been blue,
Till you've had that mood indigo.
That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes
While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues".

I always get that mood indigo,
Since my baby said goodbye.
And in the evenin' when the lights are low,
I'm so lonely I could cry.
'Cause there's nobody who cares about me,
I'm just a poor fool that's bluer than blue can be.
When I get that mood indigo,
I could lay me down and die.

You ain't never been blue; no, no, no,
You ain't never been blue,
Till you've had that mood indigo.




That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes
While I just sit here and sigh, "Go 'long blues".

Overall Meaning

In these lyrics, LE BAND is expressing the depths of despair and loneliness that come with experiencing "mood indigo." The first verse highlights that one can never truly understand the depth of sadness until they have felt this specific mood. The phrase "You ain't never been blue" suggests that the singer is speaking to someone who has never fully experienced the emotional pain and sorrow conveyed by this state of mind.


The line "That feelin' goes stealin' down to my shoes" illustrates how the mood indigo is all-encompassing, affecting every part of the singer's being. It suggests that the sadness has penetrated deep within them, leaving them unable to escape its grasp. The phrase "While I just sit here and sigh, 'Go 'long blues'" implies a resignation to the melancholy, as if the singer has accepted that the blues will persist.


The second verse reveals that the cause of the singer's mood indigo is a recent goodbye from their loved one. This departure has left them feeling lonely and as if they could cry. The lyrics further emphasize the singer's sense of isolation by stating, "There's nobody who cares about me." This perception of being alone in their pain intensifies their already profound blue state, painting a picture of utter desolation.


The final lines of the lyrics express the overwhelming weight of the mood indigo, with the singer declaring that they could "lay me down and die" due to the intensity of their sorrow. This suggests that the emotional burden has become so heavy that the singer feels hopeless and possibly even considers giving up.


Overall, these lyrics illustrate the depth of pain and sadness experienced when consumed by mood indigo. LE BAND offers a vivid portrayal of a state of mind where loneliness and desolation seem insurmountable, leaving the singer with little hope for relief.

Ever since my loved one left me, this feeling has remained with me


And in the evenin' when the lights are low,
Especially in the evening, when darkness envelops everything


I'm so lonely I could cry.
I am filled with such intense loneliness that I feel like crying

When I get that mood indigo,
Whenever I am overwhelmed by that deep sadness


I could lay me down and die.
I reach a point where I feel so hopeless that I contemplate surrendering to death
