| [00:00.840] |
The tables are empty, |
| [00:06.580] |
The dance floor deserted, |
| [00:13.640] |
You play the same love song, |
| [00:19.920] |
It’s the tenth time you’ve heard it. |
| [00:26.80] |
|
| [00:26.860] |
That’s the beginning, |
| [00:33.500] |
Just one of the clues, |
| [00:40.830] |
You’ve had your first lesson, |
| [00:46.790] |
In learnin’ the blues. |
| [00:52.600] |
|
| [00:54.820] |
The cigarettes you light, |
| [00:58.480] |
One after the other, |
| [01:05.740] |
Won’t help you forget him, |
| [01:12.770] |
When your losing your lover. |
| [01:20.39] |
|
| [01:21.930] |
You’re only burning, |
| [01:27.80] |
A torch you can’t lose, |
| [01:34.0] |
But you’re on the right track, |
| [01:40.150] |
For learnin’ the blues. |
| [01:47.630] |
|
| [01:48.890] |
When you’re out in a crowd, |
| [01:54.539] |
The blues will taunt you constantly, |
| [02:00.280] |
When you’re out in a crowd, |
| [02:07.350] |
The blues will haunt your memory. |
| [02:13.660] |
|
| [02:16.90] |
The nights when you don’t sleep, |
| [02:22.310] |
The whole night you’re cryin’, |
| [02:28.530] |
But you can not forget him, |
| [02:34.829] |
Soon you even stop tryin’, |
| [02:40.600] |
|
| [02:43.0] |
You’ll walk the floor, |
| [02:48.860] |
And wear out your shoes, |
| [02:55.770] |
When you feel your heart break, |
| [03:01.700] |
You're learnin’ the blues. |
| [03:08.310] |
