Linda Ronstadt
"Blue Prelude" lyrics

Blue Prelude

Let me cry
Let me sigh
When I'm blue
Let me go away
From this lonesome town

Won't be long
Till my song
Here is through
And I know
I'm on my last go round

All the love
I could steal
Beg or borrow
Couldn't heal
All this pain
In my soul

What is love
But a prelude
To sorrow
With a heartbreak
Ahead
As your goal?

Here I go
Now you know
Why I'm leaving
I got the blues
What can I lose?
Goodbye

All the love
I could steal
Beg or borrow
Couldn't heal
All this pain
In my soul

What is love
But a prelude
To sorrow
With a heartbreak
Ahead
As your goal?

Here I go
Now you know
Why I'm leaving
I got the blues
What can I lose?
Goodbye

Adieu
To you
Goodbye
