I lost my baby just the other day

The words she gave me are that "I'm walking away"

Makes me wonder

Does she have what it takes

To take the desert in my life and turn it into a lake

 

Or the ocean

Like the one in her eyes

I had the notion

But now I realize

That our devotion has merely crumblized

Into the sand that makes the desert in my Blue and Lonely frame of life

 

[Chorus]

Oh No

My God

She's Gone

I'm Not

 

Now I saw her in a dream last night

No Hello

Goodbye

Direct eyesight was lacking

In my pale moonlight

That is shining down upon me in my Blue and Lonely frame of life

 

Trains a coming

Yeah and I'm getting on

And where it takes me

It'll take me alone

Cause my baby

Well she's already gone

Like a steam locomotive through my Blue and Lonely frame of life

 

[Chorus]

 

So when I get there

Wherever I may go

Again I'll wonder of those words she told the other day

Not too long ago

Where I find myself standing in a Blue and Lonely

Where I find myself standing in a Blue and Lonely

Where I find myself standing in a Blue and Lonely frame of life

BLUE AND LONELY
