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

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

And 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 going to 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
