My Melancholy Baby
The Rat Pack Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cuddle up and don't be blue
All your fears are foolish fancies, maybe
You know, honey, I'm in love with you
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Just wait until the sun shines through
Smile, my honey dear, while I kiss away each tear
Every cloud must have a silver lining
Just wait until the sun shines through
Smile, my honey dear, while I kiss away each tear
Or else I shall be melancholy too
"My Melancholy Baby" is a classic and a very romantic tune sung by Frank Sinatra, and other notable musicians such as Bing Crosby, Louis Armstrong, and Ella Fitzgerald. It was first recorded in 1912 by William Frawley, and was then included in the 1913 Broadway musical "The Honeymoon Express". The song is a ballad that speaks of a lover trying to console their melancholic partner by reminding them of their love, and sharing hope that better days are ahead.
The song opens with the singer calling their partner, "my melancholy baby" and comforting them. They attempt to cheer them up by suggesting that their fears may not be based in reality. They then declare their love, which is what makes them happy. The verses speak of the inevitability of sadness and how it is okay to have good and bad days. The chorus speaks to the power of love to help someone overcome their sadness, and how they can’t help but be sad when their beloved is feeling down.
It is a beautiful love song that has stood the test of time. The lyrics capture the essence of how love can be a foundation and source of strength that people need to get through tough times. The song's soothing melody and lyrics make it an excellent choice for a slow dance or a romantic night in.

Come to me, my melancholy baby
Please come to me, my sad love
Cuddle up and don't be blue
Let's embrace and cheer up
All your fears are foolish fancies, maybe
Your anxieties are just imaginary, perhaps
You know, honey, I'm in love with you
I want you to know, my dear, that I love you
Every cloud must have a silver lining
There's always something good in the end
Just wait until the sun shines through
Just be patient until things get better
Smile, my honey dear, while I kiss away each tear
Please smile while I comfort you and wipe away your tears
Or else I shall be melancholy too
Otherwise, I will also become sad
