"I Got The Blues" lyrics

I Got The Blues

As I stand
By your flame
I get burned
Once again
Feeling low down
I'm blue

As I sit
By the fire
Of your warm
Desire
I've got the blues
For you
Yeah

Every night you've been away
I've sat down and I have prayed
That you're safe
In the arms
Of a guy
Who will bring
You alive
Won't drag you down
With abuse

In the silk
Sheet of time
I will find
Peace of mind
Love is a bed
Full of blues

And I've got the blues
For you
And I've got the blues
For you
And I'll bust my brains out
For you
And I'll tear my hair out
I'm gonna tear my hair out
Just for you

If you don't believe
What I'm singing
At three o'clock in the morning, babe
Well, I'm singing my song for you
