Am I Blue?

Thump the Clouds have come to mind this morning as I met up with AndyM and a bunch of other folk earlier this week, so for your Valentine's present you can have the lyrics to an eight bar blues of ours from back in the day. It's all very sad, but then it is the blues after all and the last word links to a deliriously romantic story. Cheer up, it might never happen.


I came to the party
I saw you again

It's hard to believe this

But it took me way back when

To when I first met you

The scene of the crime

To once upon a time

Sucking white wine up

From a paper cup

To kid myself that there was

No need for a cover up

I asked you a question

You told me a lie

You didn't see me cry

I woke up on Sunday

I wrote down this song

And started to think that

I had been away too long

I thought of that singer

Of love and of life lived in vain

And headed for the train.
