I woke up this morning with a pain in my chest.
Feeling like I've been running
and I can't find rest.
The sun's coming up, but it don't feel right.
Cuz I'm still in the shadows trying to fight this night.
I heard you left without a word,
without a sound.
Like a train that leaves but never turns
around.
I tried to forget you, but the past won't let
go.
Like a storm inside me, never letting it grow.
I got the blues on my mind and it won't leave me
alone.
Feeling like a lonesome dog without a bone.
I keep running through
these memories, through the pain and the crime.
But baby, you're the only one I
can't leave behind.
I played my guitar, tried to ease my soul,
but these strings keep echoing,
taking their toll.
I gave you my heart and I gave you
my all,
but you walked away, left me here
to fall.
I don't know where I'm going, but I know I can't stay.
The road's long and
dark, and it's pulling me away.
But the blues won't let me go.
It's all I can find.
The taste of your love still stuck
in my mind.
I got the blues on my mind and it's
burning so deep.
Like a fire inside me that I just can't keep.
You took my love
and left me behind.
Now I'm stuck with these blues, baby, all the
time.
Yeah, on my mind.
Still burning inside.
Can't leave it behind.
