As I stand by your flame,
I get burned once again
Feeling low down, I'm blue
As I sit by the fire of your warm desire
I've got the blues for you
Every night you've been away
I've sat down and I have prayed
That you're safe in the arms of a guy
Who will bring you alive,
Won't drag you down with abuse
Yeah
In the silk sheet of time,
I will find peace of mind
Love is a bed full of blues
And I've got the blues for you
And I've got the blues for you
And I'll put my things down for you
And I'll tear my hair out
I'm gonna tear my hair out just for you
If you don't believe what I'm singing
At three o'clock in the morning, babe
Well I'm singing my song for you
