" Blue Side Of Lonesome "
By: Jim Reeves
-------------
I'm callin' to tell you it's over
Yes, darlin' you're free to go
Your sayin' you're sorry you hurt me
You've hurt me much more than you know
You're askin' me where this call comes from
Oh, I hope that you won't end up here
If you're new romance turns out a failure
Here's where to find me my dear
I'm just on the blue side of lonesome
Right next to the Heartbreak Hotel
In a tavern that's known as Three Teardrops
On a stool not doin' so well
--- --- --- ---
The floor has a carpet of sorrow
No one can weep in the aisle
And they say someone broke the bar mirror
With only the ghost of a smile
The hands on the clock never alter
For things never change in this place
There's no present, no past, and no future
We're the one's lost in love's ways
I'm just on the blue side of lonesome
Right next to the Heartbreak Hotel
In a tavern that's known as Three Teardrops
On a stool not doin' so well..... |
