Border of the Blues

Hank Locklin · Please Help Me I'm Falling [Bear Family] [1995]

(Lawton Williams - Frankie Miller)



I stopped into our old hang out

Just wandered in to look about

Countin' all the faces we once knew

The thrill was gone the play seemed strange

I looked for you you never came

My heart was on the border of the blues.



A friendly smile here and there

A table with an empty chair

A love song I used to dance with you

But since you're gone there's nothing left

I couldn't stay the way I felt

My heart was on the border of the blues.
