It was the song on Frank Sinatra's first commercial record, made with Harry James's band in 1939.
The words
A singer sunk in gloom after love has gone wishes the clouds would lift.
Someone sunk in gloom after a love has ended admits that the sadness has settled in and will not lift. The singer describes the low feeling and longs for the day the clouds part and happiness returns, so the song hangs between despair and a faint hope. Dylan sings the old standard with a light, swaying touch, and the small band keeps the melancholy soft rather than heavy.
