Blue, Blue, Heart

It's cold, wet an' dark, it's the time of the year

that turns your head in a downward spin

a

promise a 'cold, wet an' dark winter time blues'

will set in

 

starin' at your TV, sippin' some leftover wine

hoping it will turn for the better and... 

Christmass is of your mind

 

another year  will be standing guard

with its 'cold, wet and dark  heart',  yet

I discover a ray of light and... my

darkness is surprised

it is sunshine it reappears, clears up my sky,

clears up my mind and for a moment...my 'cold,

wet and dark blues' disappear are out of sight

 

I'm alive, singin', shinin' life's good for a while

with that other year, a new year singin' its song

standin' guard a promise my 'cold, wet an' dark

winter time blues' will choose to leave my

blue, blue heart

Beat

Well,

I thought, heck this here guitar

I don't play on it no more, so I'll give it

to her for Christmass to come

 

so I did, I walked over, yepp to all her surprise,

goin' out of her head, out of her mind

she still was that child in time, never saw the kid

in her so very pleased

 

I don't mind admittin' my glasses went foggy on me

so I turned, she had me beat, yes sir

she sure had me beat
