I Can't Get Rid of the Blues

Why do I have the blues?  
It’s because I still love Donna  
I met her in high school  
She was a clever player  
I knew she didn’t love me,  
But I played along with her games  
Although she was using me,  
I fell in love with her  
Things didn’t go well for me  
And I’ve had the blues since then  
 
We were teenagers then  
Now we’re grownups  
I see her around once in a while  
She still has a pretty face,  
But I won’t try to seduce her  
I don’t think it will work  
She deceived me once,  
And so she may do it again  
Thinking about her depresses me  
I can’t get rid of the blues
