# LXXXVII - Duetos fabulosos - Ella and Louis


(Louis Armstrong e Ella Fitzgerald)

Fabuloso, fantástico, soberbo. Deixa-me extasiado esta versão...

Learning the blues

Ella: 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 loved him

You're only burning 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 walk the floor and wear out your shoes

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

Louis: Yes, the tables are empty the dance floor's deserted

and you play the same love song, whoa, yes it's the tenth time you've heard it,

You've had your first lesson, Whoa, yes in learnin' the Blues
