Lonesome Blues And Love Songtext
von Wendell Kimbrough
Lonesome Blues And Love Songtext
Lonely, why do you come for me?
Why can′t you leave me alone?
I was doing fine working on my own
'Til you came knocking loud upon my door
Lonely, why do you come for me
When I am not even alone?
You have less to do with my circumstance
Than something deep inside that I don′t know
And it's all I can do
to believe all that you say of me is not true
When you come for me when I'm home
Oh and you come for me when I′m gone
What am I to do when a day like this
slips past my defense and takes hold?
What kind of excuse can I tell myself
to justify this sudden empty soul?
And it′s all I can do
To believe I don't deserve these lonesome blues
When they come for me when I′m home
And they come for me when I'm gone
And I try, and I try
but I can′t get outside of my mind, though I try
'Cause demand for love kills supply
Oh, and I can′t explain my own part (no, no)
in the darker ways of my heart
I have tasted love, I have felt it's breath
warm against the surface of my soul
When I walked away
I could feel myself so quickly returning to the cold
Why can′t you leave me alone?
I was doing fine working on my own
'Til you came knocking loud upon my door
Lonely, why do you come for me
When I am not even alone?
You have less to do with my circumstance
Than something deep inside that I don′t know
And it's all I can do
to believe all that you say of me is not true
When you come for me when I'm home
Oh and you come for me when I′m gone
What am I to do when a day like this
slips past my defense and takes hold?
What kind of excuse can I tell myself
to justify this sudden empty soul?
And it′s all I can do
To believe I don't deserve these lonesome blues
When they come for me when I′m home
And they come for me when I'm gone
And I try, and I try
but I can′t get outside of my mind, though I try
'Cause demand for love kills supply
Oh, and I can′t explain my own part (no, no)
in the darker ways of my heart
I have tasted love, I have felt it's breath
warm against the surface of my soul
When I walked away
I could feel myself so quickly returning to the cold
