Blues

 I love the nightlife in the dark corners
an' shades of night the night where we
find a piano playin' the piano blues
bluer than night it self

drivin' by burning ambition leadin' me
into temptation with those haunting melodies
bound by dark desires, she's no hunter, she lets
me go,  blues surround her ol' piano

the lights here have an old glow, smoke cuts
through the shady places like a wall hard to
see through, blues were never that good
whatvever the menue it's the blues

whatever her fancy it is to be blue, her
melodies are rich in words an' are lonely
without them, she gives them her attention
when she plays her piano

softly teasin' is her play then again a risin'
gale she takes what's on the menue she leaves
under a blue moon, whatever her fancy it is to
be the blues

she has the blues in a tight embrace she loves
the blues like lace she always is in a blue haze
