lyrics

I’m blue in London
I’m blue in Paris and in Rome
I should have stayed home

I’m blue in Memphis
I’m blue in Cleveland, Ohio
No matter where I go

I tried to get away and leave myself behind
My troubles packed their bags
Stayed with me all of the time
All of the time
Sitting on my shoulder
Sipping on a bottle of wine

I’m blue in Berlin
I’m blue in rainy Amsterdam
What if I am
Nobody seemed to care if I lost my mind
My better judgment failed to talk me off that wire
Off that wire
And the wind is blowing
And there’s no controlling it
And it’s just a matter of time

How he loved me how he did
How I lost him, how I did
Now I wonder if I’ll ever stop crying

I’m blue in LA
I’m blue in San Francisco too
What can I do
I tried to get away but didn’t get too far
I couldn’t let go of the pain inside my heart
In my heart
It just keeps on bleeding
Somehow keeps on beating
You could say it’s state of the art



How he loved me how he did
How I lost him, how I did
Now I wonder if I’ll ever stop crying

I’m blue in London
I’m blue everywhere I go
Should have stayed home
I ought to be home
Going home….
