blue wind blew

van zandt, townes

blue wind's blown my dreams away

my darling's flown and she's gone to stay

all i got now is yesterday

and i don't know what to do

i guess i'll go downtown and see

just what downtown can do for me

maybe set my lonesome free

or maybe let me go

i loved her true and i told her so

i ask her too and she told me no

she said she had somewhere to go

and then she said good-bye

i wonder how long it can go on

how long i'll sing this same old song

i wonder which one done us wrong

which one forgot to try

i loved her true and i told her so

i ask her too and she told me no

she said she had somewhere to go

and then she said good-bye
