I gave my last chance to you
Don't hand it back to me bitterblue, my bitterblue
'Cause I've done all one man can do
Pleas help me lose this bitterblue, my bitterblue
'Cause I've been running a long time on this travelling ground
Wishing hard to be free of going round and round
Yes I've been moving a long time, only up and down
I gave my last hope to you
Don' t hand it back to me bitterblue, oh bitterblue
I've done all one man can do
Please help me lose this bitterblue, my bitterblue
'Cause I've been waiting a long time, aeons been and gone
Looking at the horizon for my life to dawn
Yes I've been living a long time, looking on and on
Yes I've been running a long time, summers come and gone
Drifting under the dream clouds past the broken sun
Yes I've been living a long time to be back beyond
I gave my last chance to you
Don't hand it back bitterblue, my bitterblue
I've done all one man can do
Don't pass me up oh bitterblue, my bitterblue
'Cause I've been running a long time on this travelling ground
Wishing hard to be free, going round and round
'Cause I've been waiting a long time, aeons been and gone
Looking at the horizon for my life to dawn
Yes I've been running a long time, summer 's come and gone
Drifting under the dream clouds past the frozen sun
'Cause I've been living a long time, going round and round
