A music man
Evokes a troubled fan
For yesterdays
forevermore
are gone…only to be sung about

The blues,
Play it
Sing it
Sleep it
Live it
Even question
Love and Blues
Which one is real?

Both take the soul
a sliver at a time
Both refresh the doubts
that comes to cross your mind
Seems one will kill you slowly
and the other slower yet
The fact that you will die inside
is surely the safest bet

Ahh, sing to me music man
And let me find
Was the blue tune true?
Was it me or you…wait a second
Did anything …really happen?
...or was it all in your mind?
