The One To Sing 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.
Don't know what I did to make you feel that way,
I can't always say just what I want to say,
I'm out of place again, you're on my case again,
Bringing up the past & sling it in my face again,
Put me in the frame,
So even if I win I lose,
Going down slow ain't the only way to go,
Listen to me honey, gonna tell you something funny,
Miss me when I'm gone you'll be the one to sing the blues,
Seems to me the good times ended way to soon,
Seems like faded echoes in an empty room,
Strangers in the night, strangers in the light,
Seems like every word we say just makes us scratch and bite,
Thought we had the answers,
Sure we couldn't lose,
What you want from me,
Is all the things that I can't be,
Listen to me baby, I'm beginning to go crazy,
Miss me when I'm gone you'll be the one to sing the blues,
More it think about it it's a goddamn shame,
Opposites attract 'til they become the same,
Daggers in our eyes, time to say goodbye,
Time to stop pretending, time to stop the endless lies,
I wish you luck, babe, I hope you find a dream and it comes true,
What my eyes can't see don't make no difference to me,
Listen to me faking, even though me heart is breaking,
miss you now you're gone, now I'm the one to sing the blues
