Made You Remember

Do you still know the blues
Bet you still can remember
Those bittersweet tender
Sounds of our younger years

When you ran out of hope
When your lover had left you
How you'd pick up the pieces
Of all those shattered dreams

There's no tomorrow
When your spirit's broken
The pain and the sorrow
Tearing you apart

It would hurt for a while
But it wouldn't last forever
And it made you remember
You still know the blues

I've been riding this train
I've been going the distance
I've come such a long way
From where my journey began

So I travelled the world
And I paid for the ticket
Come heaven or hard times
I never questioned the price

I've been the tiger
Roaring in the jungle
I was the eagle
Soaring in the sky

If I ever go back
To the streets where I started
Let them know I remember
I still know the blues

So many days now
Sand between my fingers
So many chances
Slipping through my hands

But when it's time to come home
To the place where I came from
You will know I remember
I still know the blues

Yes I remember
I still know the blues
