The Blues Don't Forget (blues electric) Gonna sit at home by the firelight Watch shadows climb the wall try'n get through the night. Open a new bottle fill up a glass drink to the mem'ries of the love we had. Build: I know everyone needs something to do but me I'm slowly dying thinkin bout you...... Chorus: I know you left me but you're not gone yet you're still right here where the blues don't forget I wanna call out your name tell you bout my love feel that old sweet mood between the two of us But I know you can't hear me just these dancing shadows speak they keep reminding me that you're not here with me. I'll stare at the flames til my heart grows numb drink away these feelings till a dead sleep comes. I know you left me but you're not gone yet you're still right here where the blues don't forget. Bridge: I'll talk to your picture pretend you can hear beg for some answers through a veil of tears I know you left me but you're not gone yet you're still right here where the blues don't forget......... The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up |

Takes a long time to erase the memories - do they ever go? Took me back to my divorce. Well said Ethome. |
