|
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 her and the way that you love her |
|
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 crying |
|
But you can't forget her, soon you even stop trying |
|
You'll walk that floor and wear out your shoes |
|
When you feel your heart break, you're learnin' the blues |
|
When you're at home alone, the blues will taunt you constantly |
|
When you're out in a crowd, those blues will haunt your memory |
|
The nights when you don't sleep, that whole night you're crying |
|
But you can't forget her, soon you even stop trying |
|
You'll walk the floor and you'll wear out your shoes |
|
When you feel your heart break, you're learnin' those blues |
