Lyrics:

How Blue topped Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart for a week in January of 1985, becoming Reba McEntire’s third number-one hit on the chart.
How blue (How blue) can you make me?
How long until I heal?
How can I go on loving you when you're gone?
How blue
(How blue) can I feel?

Oh, honey, why did you leave me?
Don't you have a heart left in your chest
I swear to you that I'm dying
Because my mind won't let my body rest

How blue (How blue) can you make me?
How long until I heal?
How can I go on loving you when you're gone?
How blue
(How blue) can I feel?

If I sink any lower
I'll go under
If I cry anymore
I'll go blind
No, there's no relief for this missing you grief
How long can you torture my mind?

How blue (How blue) can you make me?
How long until I heal?
How can I go on loving you when you're gone?
How blue
(How blue) can I feel?
