Lyrics
Border Of The Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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
[ guitar - piano ]
A friendly smile here and there...
My heart was on the border of the blues
