Julie London

Julie London (born Gayle Peck; September 26, 1926 – October 18, 2000) was an American singer, actress and game show panelist of the 1960s and 1970s. She was best known for her smoky, sensual voice. Her singing career's peak was in the 1950s as a pop and jazz singer, scoring a hit with her 1955 single "Cry Me a River". In the three and a half decades of her acting career, she co-starred opposite Gary Cooper in Man of the West (1958). Before her retirement, she later achieved renewed success with the female lead role of nurse Dixie McCall in the 1970s medical drama Emergency! (1972–1979), co-starring her best friend Robert Fuller and her real-life husband and best friend Bobby Troup, and produced by her ex-husband Jack Webb. more »

The tables are empty - the dance floor's deserted;
You play the same love song - it's the tenth time you've heard it.
That's the beginning   just one of the clues;
You've had your first lesson - in learnin' the blues.

The cigarettes you light - one after another
Won't help you forget him   and the way that you love him.
You're only burnin'   a torch you can't lose,
But you're on the right track   for learnin' the blues.

When you're at home alone, 
The blues will taunt you constantly;
When you're out in a crowd, 
The blues will haunt your memory.
The nights when you don't sleep  the whole night you're cryin',
But you can't forget him -- soon you even stop tryin'.
You'll walk that floor   and wear out your shoes;
When you feel your heart break.  you're learnin' the blues.

The nights when you don't sleep   the whole night you're cryin';
But you can't forget him -- soon you even stop tryin'.
You'll walk that floor and wear out your shoes;
When you feel your heart break,  you're learnin' the blues.

When you feel your heart break,  you're learnin' the blues.
