Blues for You

Still got the blues in my heart
I will never forget you
It tears me apart
I've been trying hard
To forget your name, babe

I've been praying to God
To be calmer and safer
I'm deadly in love with you
And you know it's true
I'll say it all over and over again
Still got the blues

I knew it right from the start
I would give all my life, babe
To keep you around
No, I wasn't much careful
And I blindly believed
In all those words that were spoken
In laugh and in tears

Now I see clearly enough
How much I was naive
And you were pretending
And playing your games
Full of mischief

I wish I'd never met on my way
I wish I'd never loved you
Pride, it hurts me too
It grabs for my hopes
And it's eating my brain
It's always the same, oh

I've always dreamt of somebody
Someone who'd love me
Like no other man
But never did I realize
That you could be so hard on me
I cried like a child
When you moved to another friend, babe

Oh, still got the blues in my heart
I will never, never forget you
And that feeling inside
Oh Lord, if I were a little bit wiser
I would certainly give it up

I'm deadly in love with you
And you know it's true
I'll say it all over and over again
Still got the blues

Still got the blues
Still got the blues
Still got the blues
Got the blues, oh
