Singing The Blues
Van Morrison · Other Songs - Van Morrison
'Cause I never thought that I'd ever lose your lovin'
You got me singin' the blues
Well, I never felt more like cryin' all night
'Cause ev'rythings wrong an' nothin' ain't right without you
You got me singin' the blues
The moon and stars no longer shine
A dream is gone I thought was mine
Nothin' left for me to do
But cry-i-i-i over you
Well, I never felt more like runnin' away
But why should I go?
'Cause I couldn't stay without you
You got me singin' the blues
(Instrumental)
The moon and stars no longer shine
The dream is gone I thought was mine
There's nothin' left for me to do
But cry-i-i-i- over you
I never felt more like runnin' away
But why should I go?
'Cause I couldn't stay without you
You got me singin' the blues
You got me singin' the blues
You got me singin' the blues
