Used to

be so easy

to give my heart away

but I found out

the hard way

there's a price

you have to pay

I found out this love

was no friend of mine

I should have known

time after time

So long, it was

so long ago

but I've still

got the blues for you

Used to be so easy

to fall in love again

I found out the hard way

it's a road

that leads to pain

I found out that love

was more than

just a game

You're playin' to win

but you lose

just the same

So long, it was

so long ago

but I've still

got the blues for you

So many years

since I've seen your face

but here in my heart

there's an empty space

So long

It was so long ago

but I've still

got the blues for you

Though the days

come and go

there is one

thing I know

Yes, I've still

got the blues for you
