Lyrics

Oh, I gave my last chance to you, don't hand it back to me bitterblue
No bitterblue
Yes, I've done all one man can do, don't pass me up, oh bitterblue
My bitterblue
Yes, I've been running a long time on this travelling ground, oh-oh
Wishing hard to be free of going around and round, yeah-yeah
Yes, I've been moving a long time, but only up and down, oh, oh
I gave my last hope to you, don't hand it back to me bitterblue
My bitterblue
Oh, I've done all one man can do, please help me lose this bitterblue
My bitterblue
Yes, I've been waiting a long time, aeons been and gone, oh-oh
Looking at the horizon for my light to dawn, yeah-yes
Oh yes, I've been living a long time, looking on and on, on, on
Yes, I've been running a long time, the summer's come and gone, oh-oh
Drifting under the dream clouds, past the broken sun, oh yes
Yes, I've been living a long time, to be back beyond
I gave my last chance to you, don't hand it back to me bitterblue
Oh, my bitterblue
Cause I've done all one man can do, don't pass me up oh, bitterblue
My bitterblue
Oh, my bitterblue, yeah, my bitterblue
Mmm, my bitterblue, oh-oh bitterblue, yeah
Oh, I gave my last chance to you, don't hand it back to me bitterblue
